Hi everyone!
I have someone come in 2 weeks to help me do up the garden of our new house but whereas initially I had planned to install raised flower beds all around the sides of the garden using railway sleepers, I have since read warnings about their toxic impact on the soil and want to stay away from them. The big cost is also a problem while I also don't like the idea that we are cleaning out Eastern Europe.
So now I am a bit at a loss as to how else I can raise the flower beds at a reasonable cost. Someone mentioned using decking planks. How are they held together? Are there some type of 'connectors' available? I really have no idea at all. I would prefer a wood solution but would like to stay away from log rolls.
Thanks for any help or suggestions.
