Warnings
- Even pressure-treated wood has a much shorter lifespan than other materials because of its contact with soil. If you want a more permanent solution, consider using stone or metal. Pressure-treated wood in contact with wet soil can last 5 to 15+ years (or less) depending on the site conditions and wood quality.Thanks
