FAQs

Can these planters stay outside all winter?

Do these planters have drainage holes?

Yes, they are designed with drainage in mind to ensure healthy root development for your plants.

How much soil do I need?

The set has a total capacity of 52L, so plan for approximately 26L per planter.

Are they heavy to lift?

Due to the reinforced stone construction, they have a substantial weight which provides excellent stability.

Can I use them indoors?

Is the finish real lead?

No, it is a high-quality faux lead finish designed to mimic the aesthetic of real lead without the weight or safety concerns.

Troubleshooting

Water pooling around the base

Check that the drainage holes are not blocked by soil or debris and use pot feet to raise the planter slightly.

Surface looks dusty or dull

Gently clean the surface with a damp cloth and allow it to dry naturally to restore the faux lead aesthetic.

  • Sophisticated faux lead finish offers an elegant, classic appearance

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setting up your Idealist planters is straightforward. First, ensure the chosen surface is level to prevent uneven soil distribution. If placing on a patio, ensure drainage holes are clear and unobstructed to avoid waterlogging the roots.

  • Placement: Choose a stable, flat base.
  • Soil: Use a high-quality compost mix suited to your chosen plants.
  • Drainage: Add a layer of gravel or hydroton at the bottom of the container to facilitate better drainage.
  • Cleaning: Simply wipe down with a damp cloth or soft brush to remove dust or garden debris. Avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the hand-finished surface.
