FAQs
What are the exact dimensions of the planter and the trellis sections?
The total dimensions are L240 x W40 x H150 cm. For example, a 60x40x120 cm item consists of a 60x40x60 cm planter and a 60x60 cm trellis. The planter depth is consistently 40 cm.
Does the planter need to be assembled to the trellis?
Yes, the planter and trellis arrive as separate, pre-assembled units. They require joining together upon delivery using the provided screws, which is a simple 5-minute task.
Can I customize the size of the planter and trellis?
If the standard sizing options do not meet your needs, please contact Buttercup Farm directly. They will do their best to assist with custom requirements.
What type of wood is used, and is it treated?
The planter and trellis are made from dry-graded timber that is pressure-treated for enhanced durability and resistance to rot and weathering.
How heavy is the assembled unit?
The assembled unit weighs approximately 288 kg.
Can I add wheels (castors) to this planter?
Yes, optional castors can be fitted to the planter. Please contact Buttercup Farm to arrange this add-on.
Is any special maintenance required for the wood?
The pressure-treated wood is durable. For prolonged aesthetic appeal or to change the colour, you can apply a garden wood stain or preservative annually. Regular cleaning with a damp cloth is recommended.
Do I need to fix this to the ground?
No, this planter and trellis unit is designed to be freestanding and does not require fixing into the ground.
Troubleshooting
Planter and trellis not aligning correctly during assembly.
Ensure both units are on a level surface. Check for any debris obstructing the joining points. Loosen screws slightly if needed to allow for adjustment, then tighten fully once aligned.
Wood appears to be splitting or warping.
Natural wood can expand and contract with temperature and moisture changes. Small amounts of warping are normal. Ensure the unit is not under excessive stress. For significant splitting, contact customer support.
Drainage issues in the planter.
Ensure the planter has adequate drainage holes at the bottom. If using the liner, make sure any pre-existing drainage holes are not blocked. You may need to drill additional holes if planting water-sensitive species.
