It's great to have you join us @syal77.

I've just put together a rendering which will assist you with the basic constructing of the garden bed. To create a U shape, you'll simply extend one side.

I'd suggest framing the planter out of 90 x 35mm H3 MGP 10 Treated Pine Outdoor Timber Framing. You can then clad over the top of it with Merbau decking. I look forward to hearing more about the dimensions of your project. If the planter is going to be quite large, you should consider constructing it from sleepers instead of the framing timber.

If you have any questions, please let me know.
