Flower balcony pot set with automatic watering and metal support, stefanplast 50x18x17 cm, 9.5 L, recycled plastic

The Flower balcony pot set with automatic watering and metal support by stefanplast is a 50 x 18 x 17 cm balcony planter designed for railing mounting. It features an integrated water tank that increases the interval between manual watering and holds up to 9.5 litres of substrate volume. The planter is manufactured from Second Life certified recycled plastic with a fabric-effect finish and is fully recyclable. A separate metal support provides stable attachment to balcony rails and elevates the pot for proper drainage and airflow.

Advantages

This balcony pot set combines an automatic watering reservoir with a robust metal support to reduce watering frequency and improve planting stability on railings. The 9.5 L capacity accommodates a range of container plants, herbs and decorative flowers, while the fabric-effect surface offers a neutral, textured appearance that integrates with outdoor décor. Made from certified recycled plastic, the planter supports circular material use and can be recycled at end of life.

Suitable for

• Container flowers and ornamental plants on balcony railings
• Herbs and small vegetable plants requiring moderate soil volume
• Situations where reduced daily watering is desirable (vacations, busy schedules)
• Balconies or terraces with limited floor space where railing mounting is preferred

When it may not be suitable

The pot set is compact and holds 9.5 L of substrate, so it is not suitable for large shrubs, deep-rooting plants or trees that require a bigger root volume. If you need a planter for very heavy or oversized plants, a larger ground-level container or raised bed would be more appropriate. Also, colour of the product may vary from images and the appearance may differ slightly from other planters.

How to use

Position the metal support on the balcony railing and secure the planter according to the support instructions so it is stable and level. Fill the planting area with appropriate growing medium up to the recommended level, plant your chosen flowers, herbs or small vegetables, and fill the integrated water tank following the fill indicator or visible water inlet. Monitor water level periodically and top up the reservoir as needed. Ensure drainage openings are not obstructed and prune or repot plants when root-bound to maintain health.

What to consider before purchase

• Measure your balcony railing width and profile to confirm compatibility with the metal support
• Confirm 9.5 L volume is sufficient for your planned plants (not suitable for large shrubs)
• Check that fabric-effect colour and finish match your outdoor décor, noting product colour may vary from images
• Plan for seasonal maintenance and potential relocation for heavy wind or extreme weather

Usage recommendations

Use a quality, porous potting mix suitable for container plants to optimize moisture retention and drainage, and choose plants with similar water needs. For best results, place the planter on a railing that provides partial protection from strong winds and refill the water tank when levels run low; regular inspection will extend plant health and reduce maintenance effort.
