to increase my planting area for my daylily obsession, i started building raised beds using treated lumber, mostly the 10 inch high ones. they have been a real lifesaver since i had to move and i took the ones i had with me to the new place and we built several larger ones to hold my plants. it would have been a nightmare to replant all those plants in the ground! so far, they are doing great. i used a good landscaping mix with mushroom compost and the plants are generally thriving. also, easier to work, weed, etc with the extra heigth. here is a pic.
