Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: This planter is designed for immediate use. Ensure it is placed on a stable, level surface. If drainage is required for your specific plants, you may need to drill holes in the base using a masonry drill bit suitable for stone or concrete. It is recommended to place a layer of gravel or crocks at the bottom of the planter to ensure adequate drainage and aeration.
Compatibility: The Fargro Home and Garden Low Tapered Garden Planter is suitable for a wide range of plants, including architectural grasses, upright shrubs, statement evergreens, seasonal flowers, and small trees. Its material is compatible with standard potting composts and soil mixes.
Care: To maintain the planter's appearance, wipe it down periodically with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher grime, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the polystone surface. The planter is frost-resistant, but it is advisable to remove plants and store the empty planter in a sheltered location during severe frost periods to prolong its life, although this is often not strictly necessary due to its robust construction. Ensure the planter is clean and dry before storing.
