Best Metal Raised Garden Bed Planters featured in HGTV
21 Best Raised Garden Bed Kits, According to HGTV Gardening Experts
Metal has quickly become a favorite material for raised garden beds, as it's strong, durable and surprisingly inexpensive. Metal planters are eco-friendly and recyclable, and many metal garden beds are even made from recycled materials. The most common types of metal raised beds are galvanized steel and Aluzinc steel. Galvanized raised bed planters have long been praised for their lightweight construction, rot resistance and strength, but Aluzinc takes it up a notch with even more durability, more strength and more rot resistance, all while remaining lightweight.
Best of all, steel planters don't degrade in the elements and contaminate soil with chemicals, which is of some concern with certain types of plastic and wood. Metal raised bed planters don't have all that many disadvantages, but you may deal with some sharp edges, depending on the model you choose. Additionally, cheaper metal planter options with poor-quality coatings will eventually rust and decay.
These gorgeous raised garden beds from Vego Garden are sure to take your garden from basic to beautiful. Crafted out of durable Aluzinc, this raised bed is strong and long-lasting, while the USDA-approved AkzoNobel paint ensures your fruits and veggies are free from contamination. The Vego Garden raised beds are available in seven stunning colors, so you can tailor them to your outdoor aesthetic.
HGTV Commerce Editor and Shopping Expert Morgan Faulkner has used her Vego Garden beds for two gardening seasons and highly recommends them for both novice and seasoned gardeners. "My Vego Garden beds look just as good as they did when I first got them, even after sitting outside in the elements for two years. I use my beds to grow a flower cutting garden, and all of my blooms have thrived," she says.
