The Lechuza Classico 35 LS Black Poly-Resin Self-watering Planter is designed for home gardeners seeking an elegant, low-maintenance way to keep their plants healthy. Its key benefit is the self-watering system that provides consistent moisture for 2-12 weeks, reducing watering frequency. A minor caveat is that the internal self-watering system reduces the overall planting space. This durable, German-engineered planter features a high-gloss black finish, freeze-proof and fade-proof construction, and includes an integrated reservoir, drain plug, and water level indicator for optimal plant care.

The reservoir can hold water for 2-12 weeks, depending on planter size and plant needs. Check the water level indicator regularly; refill when it indicates a low level.
Yes, the planter is made from durable, fade-proof, and freeze-proof materials, making it suitable for outdoor use. Ensure the drain plug is removed if you expect heavy rain to prevent overfilling.
The first 10-12 weeks of top-watering are crucial to help the plant's roots establish contact with the sub-irrigation system, ensuring it can effectively draw water from the reservoir later on.
No, the planter does not come with soil. You will need to provide your own suitable potting mix.
The integrated water reservoir and internal structure for the self-watering system occupy volume within the planter, reducing the space available for soil and plant roots compared to a standard planter of the same external dimensions.
The planter is made from durable poly-resin, manufactured in Germany.
Yes, the planter includes a practical plant insert with a handle, allowing for easy removal and redesign of plant arrangements without disturbing the main planter structure.
Ensure the wick system connecting the reservoir to the plant's roots is properly seated and has made contact. Check that the plant has been in the planter for more than 10-12 weeks if it's a new planting. The initial period requires top-watering for adaptation.
Confirm that the drain plug has been removed. If the plug is removed and water is still accumulating, check the drain hole for any obstructions.
Gently tap the indicator to dislodge it. If it remains stuck, remove the inner pot and carefully inspect the indicator mechanism for any debris or damage. Ensure it is correctly assembled.
Empty and clean the reservoir thoroughly with mild soap and water. Rinse well before refilling. Placing the planter in a location with less direct sunlight can also help reduce algae growth.
