FAQs

Are these planters waterproof?

The planters have a PE lining to help with moisture retention and protect the wicker, but they are not fully waterproof. They are designed for planting and should have drainage to prevent waterlogging.

Can I plant directly into the wicker?

Yes, you can plant directly into the wicker planters. The PE lining provides a barrier between the soil and the wicker material.

How do I clean the planters?

Clean the wicker planters with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive scrubbing that could damage the material.

Will I receive the exact sizes shown in the pictures?

Each planter is handmade, making them unique. The delivery is random, so while you will receive four planters in different sizes, the exact dimensions may vary slightly from piece to piece.

What is the material of the lining?

The lining is made of PE (polyethylene), a type of plastic designed to provide a moisture barrier.

Can these be used indoors?

While they can be used indoors, their rustic charm is best suited for outdoor environments. Ensure proper water containment to protect indoor surfaces.

How durable is the wicker in different weather conditions?

Wicker is a natural material and can be affected by prolonged exposure to extreme sun or moisture. For best results, protect them from harsh elements or consider using additional liners.

Troubleshooting

Wicker appears dry or faded.

Lightly moisten the wicker with a damp cloth and consider applying a natural oil (like linseed oil) suitable for rattan or wicker furniture, following the oil manufacturer's instructions.

Water pooling at the bottom.

Ensure adequate drainage by not over-compacting the soil. You can add a layer of gravel or drainage material at the bottom before adding soil. Check that the PE liner is not punctured.

Planters feel unstable.

Ensure the planters are placed on a flat, level surface. If the ground is uneven, consider adding small shims under the base to stabilize them.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: These planters are designed for direct planting with soil. They are compatible with most potting mixes and plant types suitable for container gardening.

Care: To maintain the wicker's appearance, clean with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners. For extended lifespan, especially in harsh weather conditions, consider bringing them indoors during winter or covering them. Ensure the PE lining is intact to protect the wicker from excessive moisture.
