Smart Design for Healthy Blooms

Traditional wooden hives excelled at insulation. This model uses that same thick timber architecture to protect plant roots from extreme temperature shifts, paired with functional features for easy gardening off of the ground!

• Permanently Raised Feature Lid: Creates a stunning structural frame that allows light and air to reach your plants while giving them room to spill over the sides.
• Fixed Internal Shelf: Positioned at the ideal depth so you don't waste money filling the entire deep cavity with heavy compost.
• Custom Drop-In Liner Included: Holds soil securely, retains essential moisture, and protects the structural timber from constant dampness.
• Pre-Drilled Drainage Holes: Integrated directly into the design to prevent waterlogging and ensure healthy root systems.
• Elevated Stilt Feet: Keeps the base of the planter off wet ground, promoting excellent drainage and preventing base rot.

The Best Cascading Plants for Your Hive

To achieve the ultimate "overflowing hive" aesthetic, use vigorous, trailing plants that will soften the timber edges and tumble down the wooden tiers:

• Trailing Lobelia: Produces an absolute carpet of vibrant blue, purple, or white micro-flowers all summer long.
• Surfinia Petunias: Famous for their long, cascading stems and massive trumpet-shaped flowers that bloom continuously until the first frost.
• Calibrachoa (Million Bells): Highly weather-resistant miniature blooms available in vibrant bright oranges, pinks, and yellows.
• Creeping Jenny (Lysimachia): Provides a striking cascade of bright, lime-green foliage that creates a beautiful contrast against dark wood stains.
• Trailing Ivy: Perfect for a year-round, classic English country garden look that stays green even through winter.
