Planting & Care Guide

• Ideal For: Fruit trees (apple, fig), ornamental shrubs (hydrangea, camellia), vegetables (tomato, courgette), and permanent container displays.
• Best Time to Plant: Early spring or autumn is ideal for most hardy plants. Tender species can be started indoors then moved outside after frost risk passes.
• Soil Requirements: Fill with multi-purpose compost or a blend suited to your chosen plant. Ensure regular watering—planters dry out faster than beds.
• Location: Place in full sun or partial shade depending on plant species. Move easily to chase the best light through the seasons!
• Caring Tips: Refresh soil annually for best results. Clean pot between uses to prevent disease build-up.
