This pack of 3 large open Berwick trough planters from Charles Taylor is ideal for gardeners looking to create expansive planting displays. The key benefit is the generous planting volume, allowing for a wide variety of flowers, herbs, or small shrubs. A potential consideration is their size, requiring adequate space for placement and planting. These planters feature an open design for larger planting areas, are treated with a water-repellent preservative, and are constructed from FSC-Sourced materials, arriving fully assembled.

Reapply wood preservative annually and clean with mild soap and water. Ensure good drainage.
Reapply a quality wood preservative or sealant annually. Ensure the planter is not exposed to constant direct sunlight if fading is a concern.
Ensure the planter is on a level surface and that drainage holes (if any, though open design implies natural drainage) are not blocked. Add a layer of drainage material like gravel at the base.
Small cracks can be a natural characteristic of wood expanding and contracting. If significant, consider using a wood filler suitable for outdoor use.
Setup: These planters arrive fully assembled, meaning no construction is required. Simply choose your desired location, ensure the ground is level, and fill with appropriate compost. For optimal drainage, consider placing a layer of gravel or crocks at the bottom of the trough before adding soil.
Compatibility: These troughs are compatible with a wide range of plants, from annuals and perennials to shrubs and small trees. Ensure the chosen plants suit the 62-litre volume and the dimensions of the trough. They are suitable for placement on patios, decking, gravel, or directly onto soil.
Care: The planters are treated with a water-repellent preservative. To maintain their appearance and prolong their life, it is recommended to reapply a suitable wood preservative or oil annually, especially at the beginning of the growing season. Clean with mild soap and water using a soft brush or cloth; avoid abrasive cleaners. Ensure good drainage to prevent waterlogging, which can damage the wood over time. Consider using a planter liner if you wish to protect the wood further or manage soil moisture more precisely.
