This 3-pack of Lechuza Classico Nutmeg 19cm self-watering planters is ideal for home gardeners seeking a low-maintenance way to enhance their indoor or outdoor spaces like porches, patios, or poolside areas. The key benefit is the intelligent self-watering system that provides plants with water and fertilizer for up to 12 weeks, significantly reducing watering frequency. A minor caveat is the initial 10-12 week period requiring top watering to help plants establish. Key features include a modern matte finish, UV and frost resistance, a water level indicator, a drainage hole, and a removable separator with mineral plant substrate.

The reservoir can typically supply water for 2-12 weeks, depending on the planter size, plant type, and environmental conditions. Monitor the water level indicator for guidance.
Yes, but monitor watering carefully. Succulents prefer drier conditions. Ensure the drainage hole is functional and consider not filling the reservoir too frequently, or allowing it to dry out between refills.
The mineral substrate helps to improve aeration and water retention in the soil, creating an optimal environment for root growth and nutrient uptake.
The planter is UV and frost-resistant, making it suitable for year-round outdoor use. However, in extreme freezing temperatures, it is always best practice to protect plants and ensure planters do not fill completely with water that could freeze and expand.
Continue top watering for the first 10-12 weeks. After this period, begin filling the reservoir. The plant will naturally start drawing water from the reservoir as needed.
The indicator is a clear marker that shows the current water level in the reservoir, letting you know when it's time to refill.
Ensure the wick or capillary system is making good contact with the soil. For the first 10-12 weeks, ensure you are top watering to help the plant establish its root system into the reservoir.
Check that the drainage hole is not obstructed by soil or debris. Ensure the planter is positioned correctly to allow for drainage.
Empty and clean the reservoir periodically. Ensure the water level indicator is not letting excessive light into the reservoir.
Clean gently with a damp cloth. For stubborn marks, use a mild soap and water solution, then rinse and dry.
