FAQs

Does the planter come with soil?

No, the planter is supplied empty, allowing you to choose the best potting mix for your specific plants.

Can I paint this planter?

Yes, the natural wood finish is suitable for paints or wood stains once you have ensured the wood surface is clean and dry.

Is it safe to place on a wooden deck?

Yes, the 3cm feet raise the unit off the ground, allowing for airflow and helping to prevent moisture buildup on your deck surface.

What are the exact dimensions?

The unit is approximately 88cm wide, 35cm deep, and 48cm high.

Are the drainage holes sufficient?

The pre-drilled holes are designed to provide standard drainage to prevent waterlogging for most common garden plants.

Is the wood treated against rot?

Yes, it is constructed using premium pressure-treated decking, which is designed to resist rot and decay in outdoor environments.

Troubleshooting

Water pooling inside the troughs

Ensure the pre-drilled drainage holes are not blocked by soil or debris; gently clear them with a small stick if necessary.

Wood appearing dry or fading

Apply an appropriate outdoor wood stain or decking oil to restore the finish and protect the timber.

Plants are wilting in one specific tier

Check the soil moisture level; the top tier may dry out faster than the lower tiers due to exposure and gravity.

Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Since the planter arrives fully assembled, your only setup requirement is finding a level location in your garden that receives appropriate sunlight for your chosen plants. Before filling with soil, ensure the unit is positioned where you intend it to stay, as moving it once filled can be difficult. To care for your planter, monitor the moisture levels in each tier regularly, especially during hot summer days. While the wood is pressure-treated, applying an outdoor-grade wood preservative or stain once a year will maintain its appearance and further extend its lifespan. During extreme winter weather, you may consider moving it to a sheltered area if you want to protect the wood from prolonged freezing cycles.
