Product Description
Charles Taylor HB272 – Extra Large Somerford Deep Root Planter
Deep Raised Planter for Vegetables & Established Root Systems
The Charles Taylor Somerford Extra Large Deep Root Planter is designed for serious growers who need depth as well as space. Its raised, deep-profile design is ideal for herbs, vegetables and plants with established or longer root systems, while reducing bending during planting and maintenance.
Crafted from FSC-sourced timber and treated with a water-repellent preservative, this planter is built for reliable outdoor use in the British climate. Supplied with drainage slats to support healthy root development, it can also be lined with a heavy-duty refuse bag or weed membrane if required. Measuring 1200mm wide x 590mm deep x 900mm high and weighing 25kg, it offers an impressive approximate planting volume of 200 litres, making it ideal for productive and long-term planting.
A robust, high-capacity planter perfect for kitchen gardens and larger planting schemes.

Product Details & Care
Your planter is supplied with one coat of a water-repellent preservative treatment. To help protect and extend the life of the timber, we recommend applying a suitable wood preservative periodically, depending on exposure and weather conditions. All compatible aftercare products are available from our online store.
Wood is a natural material and may expand or contract depending on weather conditions. As a result, natural characteristics such as cracking, splitting, warping or shrinkage may occur and cannot be considered faults. Periodic checking of fixings is recommended.
Occasionally, resin may appear in the timber. This is a natural occurrence and does not affect performance. If present, it can be removed using a cloth and white spirit.

Returns Policy
In line with UK distance-selling regulations, you have a 14-day right to cancel from the day you receive your order. To cancel, you must tell us within that 14-day window — you then have a further 14 days to send the item back to us.
Returns are at the customer’s cost. We do not cover return postage or collection charges, including for items delivered by pallet courier, unless the item is faulty, damaged, or incorrect.
The item must be unused, unassembled, and in its original packaging to qualify for a return. Flat-pack products that have been assembled cannot be returned — this is in addition to items that are custom, personalised, marked Final Sale, or damaged through misuse or improper assembly.
Once we receive an eligible item back, refunds are processed within 5–7 business days. The cost of standard delivery (where one applied) is refunded; any return delivery cost is not.
If your item arrives faulty, damaged, or not as described, contact us within 7 days of delivery — different terms apply under the Consumer Rights Act 2015 and you will not be asked to cover return costs in that case.
Read the full Returns & Refunds Policy for complete terms, or contact us if you’d like to start a return.
