How to use

What to consider before purchase
- Available space and planter dimensions to ensure proper fit in the intended location
- Type and maturity size of plants you plan to grow to confirm adequate soil volume
- Local climate and winter conditions to decide on additional insulation or frost protection
- Drainage needs and whether additional drainage holes or a saucer are required
Usage recommendations
For best results, use a high-quality potting mix and match plants with similar light and water needs. If you expect prolonged freezing temperatures, protect the planter by elevating it slightly and insulating the root zone with straw or horticultural fleece. Regularly check for standing water and remove excess to prevent root rot.
