FAQs
What is the capacity of each planter?
Each planter has a capacity of 5.5 litres.
Are the planters frost-proof?
The planters are made from durable plastic suitable for outdoor use, but for extreme frost conditions, it is recommended to bring them indoors to prevent potential damage.
Do I need to add anything to the bottom of the planter?
No, the planters come with integrated drainage holes. You can directly add compost and your plants. Some gardeners like to add a layer of gravel or crocks at the bottom for enhanced drainage, but it is not essential due to the pre-drilled holes.
Can these planters be used indoors?
Yes, they can be used indoors, but it is highly recommended to place them on a tray or saucer to protect indoor surfaces from any water that may drain out.
What are the exact dimensions of the planters?
Each planter has a diameter of 23cm and a height of 21cm.
How should I clean the planters?
Clean the planters with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive scrubbing pads, as these can damage the colored finish.
Can I plant larger shrubs in these planters?
These planters are best suited for smaller flowering plants, herbs, or compact shrubs due to their 23cm diameter and 5.5-litre capacity.
Troubleshooting
Plants are wilting despite watering
Check that the drainage holes are clear and not blocked. Ensure the soil is not compacted, which can hinder water absorption and aeration.
Planter feels unstable
Ensure the planter is placed on a level surface. For outdoor use, consider placing it in a sheltered spot if high winds are common.
Color fading over time
While the plastic is designed for outdoor use, fading can occur with prolonged sun exposure. Consider rotating the planters or placing them in a location with partial shade during peak sun hours.
