Product Information

Full details

The Jobu Concrete Square Plant Pot is an ideal choice for urban gardeners and interior design enthusiasts looking to house herbs, succulents, or small houseplants in a stylish, durable container. Its primary benefit is a high-quality, stable concrete build that adds a sophisticated industrial aesthetic to any space, though users should be mindful that its 2kg weight makes it better suited for sturdy surfaces rather than delicate hanging displays.

FAQs

Can this pot be used outdoors year-round?

Yes, it is suitable for outdoor use, though it is recommended to move it to a sheltered spot or indoors during extreme freezing conditions.

Does the pot include a drainage tray?

No, the pot features integrated drainage holes but does not include a saucer. You will need to source a compatible saucer separately.

Is the charcoal color painted on?

No, the pot features a pigmented concrete finish, meaning the color is integrated into the material itself for a long-lasting look.

What is the capacity of the pot?

The Jobu Square Plant Pot has a 4L capacity.

Can I use this for larger plants?

The 20cm cube size is specifically designed for herbs, succulents, and small houseplants. It may not provide enough room for fast-growing or large-root systems.

Troubleshooting

White residue appearing on the pot surface

This is likely efflorescence, a natural occurrence in concrete. Gently scrub with a soft brush and water.

Water leaking onto furniture

Ensure you are using a waterproof saucer or tray beneath the pot to catch excess water.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable, long-lasting concrete construction
  • Sophisticated, modern charcoal onyx finish
  • Built-in drainage for plant health
  • Stable base perfect for various shelf sizes

Cons

  • Not suitable for hanging due to 2kg weight
  • Concrete material can become quite heavy when saturated with soil and water
  • Rigid structure is not flexible like plastic alternatives

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up your planter, ensure it is placed on a level surface capable of supporting its weight. Because of the drainage holes, place a tray or saucer underneath when using indoors to protect furniture from water runoff. For maintenance, wipe the concrete with a damp cloth to remove dust. While the pigmented finish is durable, avoid using harsh chemical cleaners that might discolor the charcoal surface. If used outdoors during freezing winter months, move the pot to a sheltered area to prevent potential frost-related cracking.
