I was very impressed with the wooden troughs I ordered from UK Garden Supplies. They seemed to be the cheapest on the web for their good size and construction and they fit just perfectly in this area by the fence.

In the left we have french beans, and in the right we have raspberry canes. They don't look much at the moment (will we really get a crop this summer?), but with a little bit of TLC I am sure they will do just fine.

The only perils I can see at the moment are lack of sun (ok, yes this could be an issue) and ants (those darned things eat everything). I can "manage" the ants though.
