FAQs
What is polystone made of?
Polystone is a composite material made from 60% natural stone blended with 40% recycled post-consumer plastic. This combination provides the aesthetic qualities of stone with added durability and reduced weight.
Is this planter suitable for indoor use?
While the planter is designed for outdoor use and durability, it can be used indoors. However, ensure proper drainage is managed to prevent water damage to indoor surfaces.
How much soil does the planter hold?
The Fargro Home and Garden Vase Round Planter has a planting capacity of 37 litres.
Can this planter withstand frost?
Yes, the polystone material is engineered for year-round UK outdoor use and is designed to resist cracking and damage from frost.
How heavy is the planter when empty?
The planter is significantly lighter than solid stone, making it easier to reposition. Specific empty weight is not provided, but expect it to be manageable for one to two people.
Does the stone white color fade in the sun?
The polystone blend is engineered to resist UV fading, ensuring the color remains consistent over time, even with prolonged exposure to sunlight.
Troubleshooting
Planter appears to be losing color or showing surface wear.
This planter is designed for durability. If significant wear is observed, ensure it has not been exposed to harsh chemical cleaners. Minor fading can occur over extended periods in direct sunlight; consider rotating the planter or using plant stands to elevate it slightly.
Water is not draining effectively from the planter.
Check that the drainage holes at the bottom are not obstructed by soil or debris. If the planter is placed on a solid surface, ensure there is a slight gap for water to escape. You may need to clear the holes with a thin stick or wire.
Planter feels unstable after planting.
Ensure the planter is placed on a level surface. For added stability, especially in windy locations, consider anchoring it or filling the base with a layer of gravel before adding soil.
