What treated Pine for garden bed edging?

[Yvonne79]

Hi, I was wondering what treated pine should be used for my in ground garden beds - I have read H3 is not suitable for in ground, could you confirm?

Thanks in advance,

Yvonne

Hello @Yvonne79

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community. It's fantastic to have you join us, and thank you for sharing your question about what to use for your garden edging. 

I suggest using the 200 x 50mm 2.4m Sleeper H4 Treated Pine Sienna MicroPro. It uses an advance non-arsenic based preservative formulation and is ideal for landscaping, garden beds, parks and children's playgrounds. It is termite resistant and can be used for above and inground applications. The H3 timber is a treated timber, but is used only for exterior framing and is not meant to be used for inground applications.
