Lining for planters

[Belboz]

What material do I need to line planters please?

Is there a specific material or is it just the same as weed control fabric?

If anyone can help point me to a retailer that would be great.

Thanks to all.

Bubble wrap works well.

Bubble wrap works well.

Seriously??

Its waterproof and has some (albeit limited) insulating properties.

Thanks freddy

Did lots of net research and it suggested dpm, bitumen paint, roofing cement and all sorts of other stuff but didn't come up with bubble wrap.

Will now look at prices

Cheers

I have recently built a raised planter from decking. The decking is treated but i dont want to have it constantly saturated with water and would like to line the raised planter. What was the material you have found to have worked? I am thinking of using a 500 gauge polythene dpm material but wondered if something else can be used?
Thanks,
Tim
