10 Easy Pieces: Wooden Potting Benches

January 9, 2018

Is a stylish potting bench a luxury or a necessity? We think both. It’s a way to avoid an aching back from squatting to pot plants, a means to contain gardening mess, and a provider of outdoor storage. And a flat-top potting bench can serve double duty as an outdoor drinks station come summer. We’ve rounded up 10 of our favorites:

Generously sized, a spruce Aldsworth Potting Table has a zinc worktop, three drawers, and a shelf. It measures about 43.3 inches long and is £300 fro m Garden Trading.
