Product Information
Full details
The Dibor Planter - XL is ideal for gardeners looking for a durable, aesthetically pleasing home for their larger botanical displays. Its key benefit lies in the robust fibreclay construction, which offers the traditional look of earthenware with significantly improved weather resistance and a lower weight. While it provides excellent protection for plants, users should note that its square-based design and embossed detailing require careful placement to ensure stability on uneven surfaces.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maximize the lifespan of your Dibor Planter, ensure it is placed on a flat, level surface. While the pot is frost-resistant, raising the base slightly off the ground using 'pot feet' can improve drainage and airflow during extreme weather conditions. To clean the exterior, simply use a soft brush or a damp cloth to remove soil and debris from the embossed wheatsheaf details. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners, as these may strip the finish. During severe winter storms, while the material is durable, moving the planter to a sheltered area can help preserve the aesthetic quality of the finish for longer.
