A compact bed for your next garden

The Smart Pot Lil’ Shorty Raised Bed Planter gives herbs, greens, flowers, and other suitably sized crops a defined growing space. Its breathable fabric lets excess water drain through the sides and bottom.

Plan before you plant

Choose a suitable sunny location, leaving access for watering and harvesting. Match plant spacing and root-depth needs to the bed rather than crowding in too many starts. Protect moisture-sensitive surfaces while keeping drainage clear.

Simple setup

  1. Position and unfold the empty planter.
  2. Fill with an appropriate container mix, leaving room for watering.
  3. Plant seeds or young plants at the recommended depth and spacing.
  4. Water thoroughly, then check moisture regularly as weather and plant growth change.

Potting mix and plants are purchased separately. Position the bed before filling: wet soil is heavy, and the lightweight empty fabric does not make a filled bed easy to move.

Clean, dry, and reuse

Empty the planter, brush away loose soil and roots, and gently clean when needed. Air-dry thoroughly before storage and inspect the fabric and seams before planting again.
