Sustainable & Robust Construction

• Eco-Conscious Choice: Crafted from 70% recycled polypropylene and 30% natural stone powder, this planter supports sustainable gardening practices without compromising on durability.
• Built to Last: The substantial 5mm wall thickness shields roots from temperature swings and keeps the planter stable even in windy conditions.

Planting & Care Guide

• Best For: Small trees (such as olive or bay), perennial shrubs (like lavender or rosemary), or annual bedding plants.
• Soil: Fill with a well-draining multi-purpose compost. For Mediterranean plants, blend in horticultural grit to improve drainage.
• Sunlight: Place in full sun or partial shade. Ideal for patios, doorways, balconies, or garden borders.
• Irrigation: Water thoroughly after planting and during dry spells. Ensure excess water can drain freely to prevent root rot.
• Seasonal Care: Wipe the glazed surface with a damp cloth to maintain its shine. In winter, protect tender plants by moving the planter to a sheltered spot.

Design Inspiration & Companion Planting
