Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to common questions about Planters
What type of wood are your planters made from?
Our planters are crafted from strong fir wood that's specifically chosen for its durability and weather resistance. Fir wood provides excellent longevity when used outdoors and maintains its structural integrity through various weather conditions. The natural properties of fir make it an ideal choice for garden planters, as it resists warping and splitting whilst developing an attractive weathered appearance over time that blends beautifully with any garden setting.
Do the planters come with proper drainage systems?
Yes, all our planters feature built-in drainage systems designed to keep your plants healthy. The design ensures water drains properly whilst allowing roots to breathe, which is essential for plant health and prevents issues like root rot. The drainage system helps maintain the right moisture levels for your plants, whether you're growing herbs, vegetables, or ornamental plants. This thoughtful design feature means you can garden with confidence, knowing your plants have the optimal growing conditions.
Can I use these planters if I have back problems or mobility issues?
Our planters are specifically designed with comfort in mind. The raised height eliminates the need for bending down, making gardening much easier on your back, knees, and joints. This ergonomic design means you can tend to your plants whilst standing or sitting comfortably, making gardening accessible for people with various mobility concerns. The comfortable working height also makes tasks like planting, watering, and harvesting much more enjoyable and less physically demanding.
What storage options do the planters provide?
Many of our planters feature integrated storage space beneath the growing area, keeping your gardening essentials within easy reach. This clever design provides convenient storage for items like hand tools, watering equipment, plant food, seeds, or spare pots. Having everything you need stored right where you're working makes gardening more efficient and organised, whilst keeping your outdoor space tidy and clutter-free.
Where can I position these planters in my outdoor space?
Our planters are incredibly versatile and work well in various outdoor locations. They're perfect for balconies, patios, gardens, and decks, making them suitable whether you have a large garden or just a small corner to work with. The portable design means you can move them around to catch the best sunlight for different plants, and they work equally well in urban settings like apartment balconies or larger suburban gardens. Their attractive appearance complements any outdoor décor style.
What types of plants can I grow in these planters?
These planters are suitable for a wide variety of plants, from practical to decorative. You can grow herbs like oregano and basil, vegetables such as tomatoes, lettuce, and peppers, or create beautiful displays with flowers and ornamental plants. The proper drainage and adequate growing depth make them ideal for both shallow-rooted plants like herbs and deeper-rooted vegetables. The versatility means you can create herb gardens, vegetable plots, or stunning floral displays according to your preferences.
How much assembly is required and what tools do I need?
Our planters arrive ready to assemble with clear instructions included. Most designs require basic DIY skills and common tools like a screwdriver and possibly a drill. The fir wood components are pre-cut and designed to fit together efficiently, typically taking 1-2 hours to complete depending on the size and complexity. We provide all necessary hardware, and the straightforward assembly process means you'll have your planter ready for use quickly without needing specialist tools or professional installation.
