Can I paint or stain the wood?

Troubleshooting
Planter and trellis pieces do not align for joining.
Check that both pieces are placed on a level surface. Ensure no debris is obstructing the joining points. Gently adjust the position of the pieces until the pre-drilled holes align.
Wood appears slightly different in colour from images.
Wood is a natural material, and variations in grain and colour are normal. The product images are for illustration purposes. The handmade nature may also lead to minor aesthetic differences.
Waterlogging within the planter.
Ensure the drainage holes at the bottom of the planter are not blocked. If drainage is poor, consider adding a layer of gravel at the base before adding soil and the liner.
Difficulty moving the assembled planter.
Due to its weight (144 kg), it is advisable to assemble the planter in its final location or have adequate assistance to move it once assembled. Avoid dragging it across surfaces.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Upon delivery, the planter and trellis will require joining. This is a straightforward process that should take approximately 5 minutes. All necessary fixings are provided. Ensure you have a clear space to work in and consider having a second person to help position the units for joining.
Compatibility: This planter is suitable for most outdoor environments. It is designed to hold soil and plants directly using the included liner. It is compatible with a wide range of climbing plants. As it does not require ground fixing, it can be placed on solid surfaces like patios, decking, or gravel.
Care: To maintain the appearance and longevity of the timber, it is recommended to clean the planter periodically with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. While the timber is pressure-treated, applying a suitable wood preservative or stain annually can further protect it from the elements and maintain its colour. Ensure good drainage in the planter to prevent waterlogging.
