Grow-Top Living Roof Garden Store - Small
Delivery Option
The Small Grow-Top Garden Store - make extra use of your outdoor storage by combining a growing, living roof with a small tool store.
Make your back door store a real part of the garden by planting the top with flowers, salads or herbs. Pick your fresh salad crops or herbs right outside your door - approx external size is 3ft 10in W x 2ft 5in D x 4ft 1in H.
A great idea to brighten any dull part of the garden, the space by your back door, or a patio corner. The Grow-Top is designed for you to make the most of the space in smaller town gardens, without getting lost in larger country gardens. Comes with one full-width shelf and double, pad-lockable, doors.
With the Grow-Top bed itself being at just 4ft high, it is easy to maintain and easy to access. The roof has a gentle slope to make sure rainwater can gently run off without disturbing the soil bed.
The timber is thick pressure-treated T&G with the floor raised on 66mm bearers. For more details of the timber and fixings we use, see About our Garden Stores.
For the Grow-Top bed, we have lined it with a waterproof membrane then added a geotextile liner/capillary mat to both contain the compost and allow an even transportation of water throughout the bed. The capillary matting is a non-toxic, cotton-polyester material with a water holding capacity of approx. 3 litres per sq metre.
This makes watering the plants both easy and economical. To avoid water-logging we have built-in, to the front right-hand corner, an un-blockable drainage route so that there will be no loss of growing material and the Grow-Top will not become over-watered.
