FAQs

Is the wood safe for growing vegetables?

Yes, the timber used in the Somerset range is pet and food-growth friendly, making it safe for vegetable and herb cultivation.

Does the planter come with a liner?

Yes, each Somerset Garden Planter Trough arrives with a fitted liner included for immediate use.

How long will the timber last?

The pressure-treated timber is designed for longevity, with an estimated lifespan of up to 25 years under normal conditions.

Are the fixings visible?

No, the planters are designed with hidden fixings to ensure a clean and modern appearance.

Can I leave this out in the winter?

Absolutely. The robust, pressure-treated construction is designed to withstand harsh outdoor weather, including frost and rain, throughout the year.

Do I need to assemble the planter?

No, the unit arrives fully assembled and ready for planting.

Troubleshooting

Water pooling inside the planter

Check the drainage gaps at the base. Ensure the planter is not sitting directly on a flat surface that creates a seal; use feet or risers if necessary to improve airflow and runoff.

Surface color fading

Natural weathering can affect the finish. Apply a compatible exterior-grade wood stain or protector to refresh the color and maintain water resistance.

Difficulty moving the planter once filled

The planter is designed for static, permanent placement. Use a heavy-duty trolley if relocation is required, or empty the soil content before attempting to lift.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-durability timber with a long estimated lifespan
  • Pre-assembled for instant use
  • Versatile design suitable for vegetables or decorative plants
  • Clean, modern aesthetic that hides structural fixings
  • Safe for organic vegetable and herb growing

Cons

  • Heavy construction may require assistance for positioning
  • Fixed dimensions may not suit very small balconies
  • Pressure-treated timber has a distinct initial finish

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These planters are delivered pre-assembled, meaning no tools or construction knowledge are required for setup. Simply place the planter in your desired location, ensuring the surface is relatively level to maintain structural integrity. To maximize the 25-year lifespan, periodically check the drainage holes to ensure they remain clear of debris. While the timber is pressure-treated, you may choose to apply a protective exterior wood oil or stain over time to maintain the specific coastal blue color or overall aesthetic. If using the planter for heavy shrubs or small trees, place the unit in its final position before filling with soil, as the weight of the damp earth and the planter combined can be significant.
