The approximate planter volume is 46 liters.
No, a liner is not included but can be fitted if required for specific planting needs.
It is recommended to reapply a suitable wood preservative or oil annually, or as needed, to maintain protection against the elements.
Yes, the wood has been treated with an oil-based water-repellent preservative for enhanced durability and weather resistance.
The 10-year guarantee is against rot, ensuring the structural integrity of the wood over a decade.
As a large planter, it can be heavy once filled with soil. It is best to position it in its final location before filling. If moving is necessary, empty the planter first.
No, the planter features rustproof galvanized zinc bolting, which protects the bolts against corrosion and rusting.
This may occur in prolonged dry or hot weather. Reapply a suitable wood preservative or oil to nourish the timber and restore moisture balance.
Ensure the planter is placed on a level surface and that the drainage slats are clear. If on a solid surface like a patio, ensure adequate slope away from the planter.
The galvanized zinc coating provides protection. Surface rust on galvanized coatings is typically superficial and does not compromise the bolt's integrity. If concerned, a light application of a rust inhibitor may be used, but is generally not required for functional longevity.
Setup:
This is a freestanding planter and requires no complex assembly. Position it on a level surface in your desired garden location. Ensure the chosen spot receives appropriate sunlight for the plants you intend to grow.
Compatibility:
The planter is compatible with most standard potting soils and composts. It is designed for outdoor use and can be placed directly on grass, patio, or decking. For specific plant needs that require a particular soil pH or drainage level, consider using a liner (not included) to create a custom environment. The planter's volume of approximately 46 liters is suitable for a wide range of plants, from small flowers and herbs to larger shrubs.
Care:
To maintain the planter's appearance and ensure maximum longevity, periodic cleaning and re-treatment are recommended.
