These were another option for me. I like the cleaner look of the solid Starboard. We'll see how it holds up. So far it still looks good and my gardener is out there all the time.I used some leftover recycled plastic 2x6 planks from picnic tables that we use. They've lasted over 28 years so far without so much as the color changing. Expensive, yes, but indestructible. They are available at the big box stores, as well, so you can get them readily.
