This solar-powered planter brings together vibrant plant life and practical outdoor lighting in one charming package. Crafted from high-quality weatherproof resin, it’s built to last through the UK’s changing seasons while providing a stylish home for your favourite bedding plants, herbs, or succulents. The integrated solar panel absorbs sunlight by day and casts a soft glow at night—perfect for illuminating pathways, patios, or balcony corners.

Key Planting Benefits

• All-Season Display: The planter accommodates annuals or perennials—choose colourful pansies in spring or hardy evergreens for year-round interest.
• Optimal Size: At 19cm x 15.5cm x 19cm, it fits comfortably on steps, tables, or nestled among garden borders.
• No-Fuss Lighting: The automatic solar light provides gentle illumination without the need for mains power or batteries.

How to Plant & Care

• Best Plants: Suitable for compact bedding plants (like violas or petunias), trailing ivy, small ferns, or culinary herbs.
• Sunlight Requirements: Place the planter where it receives direct sunlight for at least 6 hours daily to ensure optimal solar charging and healthy plant growth.
• Soil Preference: Use a peat-free multi-purpose compost; add drainage material (like gravel) at the base to prevent waterlogging.
• Irrigation: Water regularly but avoid overwatering; check soil moisture before each watering session.
• Care Tips: Wipe the resin surface with a damp cloth to keep it clean. Store indoors during extreme frost to prolong its lifespan.

Design Ideas & Placement

• Create a welcoming entrance by placing it near your front door with seasonal blooms.
• Add soft light and greenery to patios, balconies, or decking areas—ideal for alfresco evenings.
• Pair with other planters featuring lavender or ornamental grasses for texture and contrast.
