The planter is made from durable, weather-resistant fibreglass.
While durable, its large size and outdoor design make it best suited for patios, terraces, and garden entrances rather than typical indoor spaces.
Check for existing drainage holes. If none are present or if more are needed for your specific plants, you can carefully drill them into the base. Adding a layer of gravel at the bottom also aids drainage.
Fibreglass is generally frost-resistant, but it is always advisable to protect plants within the planter during harsh winter conditions or consider removing them to a sheltered location.
The planter features a deep brown matte finish, described as calm and grounded.
Clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Rinse and dry. Avoid abrasive materials that could scratch the matte surface.
Yes, provided the balcony can support the weight of the planter when filled and that there are no weight restrictions. Ensure it is placed securely.
Ensure the planter is placed on a firm, level surface. Consider adding weight to the bottom before planting if in a high-wind area.
Verify that adequate drainage holes are present and clear. If not, carefully drill holes in the base. Add a layer of gravel at the bottom for improved water flow.
Use a soft cloth with a mild detergent and water. Rinse thoroughly and dry. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive scrubbers.
Setup: Position the planter in its desired location before filling with soil and plants, as its 80cm size makes it heavy and difficult to move once planted. Ensure the surface is stable and level to prevent tipping.
Compatibility: This planter is compatible with a wide range of soil types and plants, from small shrubs and perennials to seasonal bedding. Its open top allows for various planting arrangements. It is designed for outdoor use and can withstand typical weather conditions.
Care: Clean the planter periodically with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the matte finish. Ensure adequate drainage by adding a layer of gravel or using a drill to create drainage holes if none exist and required for specific plants.
