Know before you buy
The planter features a sub-irrigation reservoir that allows plants to draw water up through the soil as needed. This helps maintain consistent moisture levels and reduces the frequency of manual watering.
Yes, the polyethylene construction is weather-resistant and designed for all-season use. However, if you live in an area with freezing temperatures, it is recommended to ensure proper drainage to prevent water expansion from damaging the planter.
The planter is designed with a double-wall construction; if you are using it outdoors, you may need to drill a small hole in the side to allow excess water to overflow from the reservoir.
No, the material is specifically treated for UV resistance. This ensures the white finish maintains its color and resists fading even when placed in areas with intense, direct sun exposure.
The reversible tray provides a stable base for your plants within the planter. Depending on the depth of your plant's root system, you can flip the tray to adjust the soil capacity and ensure the plant is positioned at the ideal height.
At 10.6 pounds, it is lightweight enough to move easily, but it can be top-heavy once planted. For added stability in windy outdoor locations, you can add a layer of gravel or sand to the base of the planter.
