Product Information
Full details
The Dibor Large Planter in beige is designed for homeowners and gardeners seeking a durable, antique-inspired aesthetic for their outdoor spaces. Its key benefit lies in the robust, frost-resistant fibreclay construction that mimics traditional earthenware while remaining lightweight and easy to manage. While the neutral tone beautifully highlights botanical greenery, users should note that the large 37.5cm size requires a stable, level surface to ensure long-term structural integrity when filled with wet soil and mature plants.

FAQs
Is this planter suitable for indoor use?
While intended for the garden, it can be used indoors provided you place a saucer underneath to catch water escaping from the drainage hole.
Does the planter come with a saucer?
No, this model is designed primarily for outdoor drainage and does not include a saucer.
Can I leave this outside in winter?
Yes, the fibreclay material is frost-resistant and designed to handle cold, damp climates year-round.
How heavy is the planter when empty?
The fibreclay composition is engineered to be significantly lighter than traditional stone or earthenware, making it easy for one person to move.
Will the beige color fade in direct sunlight?
The material is treated for outdoor durability, though some natural weathering may occur over many years of intense sun exposure.
Troubleshooting
Water pooling at the base
Check the drainage hole for debris and ensure the pot is slightly elevated on feet to allow free water flow.
Visible surface scuffs
Gently buff the area with a soft brush; because the material is uniform, minor surface blemishes are usually inconspicuous.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To prepare the planter, place a layer of gravel or expanded clay pebbles at the bottom to ensure the `drainage-hole` does not become blocked by dense potting mix. Use a high-quality, free-draining compost to promote healthy root growth. For care, keep the planter clean by wiping it down with a damp cloth if dust or mud accumulates on the embossed design. During extreme winter conditions, ensure the pot is slightly elevated using "pot feet" to allow water to drain freely, which prevents the base from sitting in ice and protects your patio surfaces.
