FAQs
Does the unit come with soil?
No, soil and plants must be purchased separately.
Can I paint or stain the timber?
Yes, as it is pressure-treated timber, you can apply a suitable outdoor wood stain or paint once the wood is fully dry.
Do I need special tools to assemble it?
No, only a basic screwdriver is required to secure the provided fixings.
Is the planter frost-proof?
The timber construction is resistant to frost, but it is recommended to ensure good drainage to prevent internal water expansion during winter.
What is the total height of the unit?
The total height including the planter and trellis is 150cm.
Troubleshooting
Trellis feels slightly loose after assembly
Verify that all provided fixings are fully tightened into the pre-drilled holes; if the unit is on an uneven surface, use shims under the planter base to ensure it sits flush.
Water pooling inside the planter
Ensure the liner has adequate drainage holes at the base to allow excess water to escape into the planter's drainage system.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
Prepare a level area of at least 150cm by 40cm.
Position the planter base exactly where you want it, as the 180kg weight makes it difficult to reposition once filled.
Align the trellis with the pre-drilled holes on the back of the planter.
Secure the included fixings using a standard screwdriver or drill.
Care:
Periodically check the fixings to ensure they remain tight.
Refresh the timber with a water-based wood preservative every 2-3 years to maintain the finish.
Ensure the liner remains intact to prevent soil leakage and internal moisture buildup.
