EDA raised planter OSAKA model 013587 G.ANT CX, anthracite, soil volume 48 L, with feet

Raised planter EDA OSAKA model 013587 G.ANT CX is an anthracite elevated planting container with a soil capacity of 48 liters and integrated feet for stable placement. Designed for balcony, terrace or patio use, this planter provides an ergonomic planting height that reduces the need to bend and has built-in drainage features suited for flowers, herbs and small shrubs. The neutral anthracite finish fits contemporary outdoor settings and the elevated design improves air circulation under the planter.

Advantages

The EDA OSAKA raised planter combines a compact footprint with a generous soil volume, enabling healthy root development for a variety of plants while occupying limited horizontal space. Its integrated feet lift the container above the ground to assist drainage and reduce direct contact with wet surfaces, which helps extend the functional life of the planter. The anthracite colour offers a neutral aesthetic that integrates with most balcony and terrace styles, and the sturdy construction is intended for repeated outdoor use.

Suitable for

• Growing flowers and ornamental plants on balconies or terraces
• Herb gardening for kitchen use (basil, parsley, thyme, etc.)
• Small shrubs or compact ornamental grasses
• Urban gardening where elevated planting and drainage are required

When it may not be suitable

This raised planter is not designed for very large trees or deep-rooted shrubs that require substantially more soil volume and root space than 48 liters. It may also be less suitable in environments where extreme wind or heavy loading is expected unless it is securely anchored or placed behind a windbreak.

Key specifications

• External dimensions: approximately 780 mm width x 680 mm height
• Soil volume: 48 litres
• Colour: anthracite
• Design: elevated planter with integrated feet for stability and drainage
• Intended use: outdoor balcony, terrace or patio planting

How to use

Place the raised planter on a level, stable surface and ensure the integrated feet sit firmly. Add an appropriate layer of drainage material such as expanded clay or coarse grit if desired, then fill with a suitable potting mix formulated for the intended plants. Plant according to species-specific spacing and depth, water thoroughly after planting and monitor moisture levels regularly. Ensure excess water can drain freely and relocate or protect the planter during prolonged severe weather.

What to consider before purchase

• Available planting depth and 48 L soil volume relative to the species you intend to grow
• Placement location and exposure to wind, sun and rain
• Weight when filled with soil and plants—verify the supporting structure (balcony, stand) can bear the load
• Compatibility of the anthracite color with your outdoor decor

Usage recommendations

For best results, use a free-draining potting mix and avoid compacting the soil. Rotate seasonal plantings to maintain soil fertility, and consider adding slow-release fertilizer or regular liquid feeding suited to flowers, herbs or shrubs. During winter, if temperatures regularly drop below freezing, consider partial sheltering or moving the planter to a protected location to reduce freeze–thaw stress on the container and root zone.
