Product Information
Full details
This high-gloss ceramic effect plant pot from Gardening Naturally is ideal for gardeners seeking a stylish yet lightweight planter for both indoor and outdoor use. Its key benefit is the sophisticated stone-like appearance without the heavy weight, combined with excellent weather resistance. A potential caveat is that while durable, the glossy finish may show water spots more readily than a matte finish. The planter is crafted from a stone, resin, and fibreglass blend, offering UV protection, frost resistance, and a drainage hole with a removable bung.

FAQs
What materials is the plant pot made from?
The pot is crafted from a durable and lightweight blend of stone, resin, and fibreglass.
Is this planter suitable for outdoor use in winter?
Yes, the planter is frost-resistant, meaning it is designed to withstand freezing temperatures without cracking, making it suitable for year-round outdoor use.
How do I ensure it doesn't leak water indoors?
Insert the provided rubber bung securely into the drainage hole. This will prevent water from escaping when used indoors.
What are the available sizes and colours?
The planter is available in four sizes: Small (Diameter 36cm x Height 30cm), Medium (Diameter 40.5cm x Height 33cm), Large (Diameter 44cm x Height 38cm), and Extra Large (Diameter 49cm x Height 42cm). It comes in three colours: olive green, black, and sapphire blue, all with a high-gloss finish.
How is it different from a traditional stone planter?
It offers a similar aesthetic to stone but is approximately 30% lighter, making it much easier to handle and reposition.
Can I use abrasive cleaners on the pot?
No, it is recommended to use only a soft, damp cloth or a mild soap solution with a soft cloth. Abrasive cleaners or scouring pads can damage the high-gloss finish.
Does it come with a saucer?
A saucer is not included. If using indoors, you may want to use a separate saucer or ensure the bung is securely in place to protect surfaces.
Troubleshooting
Planter appears to be leaking indoors.
Ensure the rubber bung is fully and securely inserted into the drainage hole. Check the bung for any damage or debris that might prevent a proper seal.
The glossy finish seems dull or has water spots.
Clean the planter with a soft, damp cloth and a mild soap solution. Rinse thoroughly with clean water and dry with a soft cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
Planter is difficult to move when filled.
While significantly lighter than stone, the planter can still be heavy when filled. Consider filling it in its final desired location or use a plant caddy or dolly for easier relocation.
Plants are not draining well outdoors.
Confirm that the rubber bung has been removed from the drainage hole. Ensure the drainage hole itself is not obstructed by soil or roots.
Pros and Cons
Pros
Elegant high-gloss finish mimics the look of expensive ceramic or stone.
Lightweight construction makes it easy to move, even when filled.
Durable and weather-resistant for reliable year-round outdoor use.
Frost-resistant design prevents damage in cold climates.
Versatile for both indoor and outdoor use thanks to the drainage bung.
Available in multiple sizes and attractive colours.
Cons
High-gloss finish can be prone to showing water spots or fingerprints.
May not be as insulating for plant roots as thicker, traditional materials in extreme temperatures.
While durable, the material may be susceptible to scratching if handled roughly.
Specific care instructions may be needed to maintain the glossy sheen.
The weight, while lighter than stone, might still be significant for some users when filled.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
Unpack the planter carefully, removing any protective packaging.
Decide on the placement – indoor or outdoor.
If placing outdoors where drainage is desired, ensure the removable rubber bung is taken out of the drainage hole.
If placing indoors, insert the rubber bung securely into the drainage hole to prevent water leakage.
Fill with appropriate potting soil and your chosen plant.
Compatibility:
Suitable for most common potting soils and plant types.
Designed for use with or without a saucer when placed indoors (ensure bung is secure).
Ideal for balconies, patios, terraces, gardens, conservatories, and indoor living spaces.
Care:
Clean the exterior with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust and dirt.
For stubborn marks, use a mild soap solution and rinse with clean water. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, which can damage the glossy finish.
Regularly check the drainage hole and bung to ensure they are free from debris.
While UV protected, prolonged, extreme exposure to harsh elements might eventually affect the finish over many years. Consider rotating the pot if placed in constant direct sunlight.
