More about Oblong Planter Boxes
The Oblong Planter Boxes are a great addition to any garden or outdoor area. Their modern design and straight lines make them a perfect fit for any garden style, whether it’s modern or traditional. These planter boxes have a sleek and simple look that adds elegance to any outdoor space.
One of the best features of our oblong planter boxes is their durability. The larger sizes are reinforced inside, ensuring that they can withstand the test of time and the elements. Additionally, all of our oblong planter boxes are sealed inside with our special waterproofing before they are delivered to you. This means that your plants will be protected from any water damage, giving you peace of mind.
What makes these planter boxes unique is the underlying frame they have. This frame ensures that when the planter is installed on paving, wood decks, or garden settings, the drainage holes are raised off the ground. This allows for proper drainage and prevents waterlogging, which can harm your plants.
With our oblong planter boxes, you can create a beautiful and functional garden space.
Optimal Drainage in Oblong Planter Box Installation
When it comes to installing these planter boxes, drainage is a top priority.
- To ensure proper drainage, start by placing a fibreglass fly screen over the hole at the bottom of the box. This will prevent soil from clogging the hole while allowing excess water to flow out.
- Next, add a layer of 20mm blue metal stone over the flyscreen. This stone layer will help water collect and flow away from the plant’s roots, improving drainage. Once the stone layer is in place, add another flyscreen layer to keep the potting mix separate from the stone.
- Finally, fill the planter box with a quality potting mix. This will provide the necessary nutrients and support for your plants to thrive. Choose a potting mix that suits the specific plants you want to grow, ensuring they have the right balance of nutrients and moisture retention.
Overall, these Oblong Planter Boxes are both functional and visually appealing. With their well-designed drainage system, they will help your plants grow healthy and vibrant. Whether you have a small balcony or a spacious garden, these planter boxes are a great choice for adding greenery and beauty to your outdoor space.
