FAQ

What type of wood are the planters made from?

These wooden planters are crafted primarily from seasoned European hardwood, known for its density and resistance to weathering. The exact species varies by design but includes oak and ash for optimal durability.

Are they suitable for outdoor use?

Absolutely! These planters have been specifically treated with a protective sealant to enhance their weather resistance. However, we recommend occasional cleaning and oiling to maintain the wood's appearance and longevity.

How do I care for my wooden planter?

Regularly wipe down your planter with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. Applying a thin coat of beeswax or linseed oil annually will help protect the wood from moisture and UV damage, preserving its colour and preventing cracking.

Are these planters suitable for growing vegetables?

Yes, they are perfectly suitable! The natural properties of wood are beneficial for root growth, however, ensure adequate drainage to prevent waterlogging. Consider lining the pots with landscape fabric if needed.

What size options are available?

We offer a range of sizes from small decorative planters (approximately 15cm diameter) up to larger statement pieces (up to 60cm diameter). Please see individual product listings for precise dimensions.

Do these planters require any special assembly?

Most planters come flat-packed and require minimal assembly – typically just attaching the feet. Detailed instructions are included with each purchase.

Are these planters resistant to rot or fungal growth?

The hardwood construction and protective sealant significantly reduce the risk of rot and fungal growth, but regular inspection and timely cleaning are still recommended for optimal performance.

Can I paint or stain my wooden planter?

While you can technically paint or stain them, we advise against it as this may compromise the wood's natural durability. If you do choose to modify them, use exterior-grade paints or stains specifically designed for wood and allow ample drying time.

What is the warranty on these wooden planters?

Amazon offers a standard 30-day returns policy from the date of delivery if the product arrives damaged or not as described. Please refer to Amazon’s website for full details.

Are there any specific soil recommendations?

We recommend using a good quality potting mix formulated for raised beds or containers. Avoid heavy clay soils, which can compact and impede drainage within the wooden planter.
