About This Product

Discover the perfect way to bring your patio and balcony to life with the Balconera Cottage window box planter. This versatile planter can be placed on decks and used as a floor planter or hung from walls and railings as a window box planter with the purchase of the optional Balconera Brackets. These easy-to-use brackets fit into the back of the planter, making them an invisible support system. Plus, the Balconera Cottage's natural wicker finish allows you to seamlessly incorporate it into your home's current furnishings. Like most Lechuza planters, the Balconera Cottage comes equipped with an easy-to-lift liner that makes planting simple. Don't worry about juggling the planter and brackets as you hang the heavy pre-planted window box. Simply hang the empty planter from a window or balcony railing, remove the liner to plant your beautiful flowers or herbs and then reinsert the planted liner with retractable handles into the already-hung Balconera Cottage. Furthermore, Lechuza's signature water reservoir supplies water to your plants as needed, extending the time between watering. Users can easily monitor their water reservoir levels with the planter's water-level indicator, which shows when the reservoir needs to be refilled, taking the guesswork out of plant care. Also included with this planter is Lechuza's specially-formulated plant substrate, Lechuza-PON which separates your potting soil from the water reservoir.

Highlights

  • Water-level indicator takes the guesswork out of watering

              Answer This Question

              Hi FirstTimeGrower. The Lechuza Trend Balconera Cottage 20 in. x 7 in. x 7 in. Rectangle Mocha Balcony Self Watering Plastic Planter is not very large and as a result may only be good for herbs like Basil, Cilantro or Oregano, or maybe a smaller tomato or Bell Pepper plant. A fruit tree would not have adequate space to produce any fruit. Herbs or smaller veggies would be your best choice or this container. Please let us know if we can be of further assistance.

                The two fully removable liners (with handles) will make it easy to do the messy planting outside and bring the two finished products inside to the handsome large white frame, ready to cheer up my office. I'm learning that not all plants are suitable for self-watering planter (those that need regular dry days) and that it takes several months before roots will be sufficiently established to rely on the bottom-up self-watering. But it's a beautiful unit and I look forward to getting plants in it.

                  Warning - it’s not ‘all-in-one’
                  This product is touted as being all-in-one. Guess what, it’s not. You have to spend another 30 to 40 dollars just for the brackets. The whole package is not worth spending over $100 on. This is what you call ‘bait and switch’.

                    Love these planter boxes, I shopped around and Home Depot had the best price. I fill them up once a week when its not super hot but when in the 90's I'm filling twice a week. This look great, I really like the water gauge, I wish they made a large hang basket.

                    I would post a photo if I could. It looks lovely and needs water added infrequently, even in 90° weather.
