The Flower balcony planter set stef anplast 2168400 is a rectangular 50 x 18 x 17 cm balcony planter with an integrated automatic watering tank and a metal support for easy mounting on railings or balcony edges. The planter holds 9.5 L of soil, has a fabric-effect surface and is produced from Second Life certified recycled plastic; the product is fully recyclable. Colour may vary from images.

Advantages

The integrated water tank reduces watering frequency by storing reserve water and helping maintain consistent soil moisture. The included metal support provides stable mounting and keeps the planter securely in place on most balcony rails. The use of certified recycled plastic and a recyclable design reduces environmental footprint while offering a durable, weather-resistant container. Its compact rectangular shape and 9.5 L volume suit a variety of plants without occupying excessive balcony space.

Suitable for

• Growing herbs and culinary plants on small balconies
• Flower displays and seasonal bedding plants
• Compact vegetable cultivation (e.g., lettuce, radishes, small peppers)
• Decorative arrangements on balcony rails or ledges

When it may not be suitable

This planter is not suitable for large shrubs or plants with deep root systems because of its 9.5 L volume and relatively shallow depth. It may not fit non-standard or very wide balcony railings; check rail dimensions and support compatibility before purchase.

Key specifications

• External dimensions: 50 x 18 x 17 cm
• Soil/volume capacity: 9.5 litres
• Material: Second Life certified recycled plastic (100% recyclable)
• Finish: fabric-effect surface
• Accessories: metal support for railing/edge mounting
• Built-in feature: integrated water reservoir for automatic watering

How to use

Place the metal support on the balcony railing or edge according to the mounting instructions and secure the planter in the support. Before planting, fill the water reservoir to the recommended level and add substrate suitable for the chosen plants. Plant herbs, flowers or compact vegetables in the soil; the reservoir will provide gradual moisture to the root zone. Refill the reservoir as needed and monitor drainage and soil moisture, especially in hot weather.

What to consider before purchase

• Measure your balcony railing or ledge to ensure the metal support will fit securely.
• Choose plants suitable for a 9.5 L container and relatively shallow root depth.
• Consider exposure to sun and wind; the plastic and reservoir behaviour may vary in extreme conditions.
• Colour may vary from product images; check product photos and descriptions.

Usage recommendations

For best results, use a light, well-draining potting mix and place the planter where it receives the appropriate amount of sun for your chosen plants. Periodically check the reservoir and remove excess water if heavy rain saturates the soil. Regular feeding during the growing season will help maintain healthy growth in the confined volume.
