Description
Introduce a touch of modern elegance to your outdoor areas with the Rowlinson Marberry Square Planter. As a distinguished part of the premium Marberry Range, this cubic vessel steps away from traditional rustic designs, instead offering a highly contemporary aesthetic defined by its horizontal timber slats and expertly planed rounded corners. Because it is delivered to your door entirely pre-assembled, the typical hassle of construction is removed, allowing you to immediately focus on creating striking, long-lasting floral displays.
Despite its highly compact footprint of just W400 x D400 mm, this cubic planter offers a generous soil capacity of approximately 27 L. The internal planting dimensions of H250 x W330 x D330 mm offer a superb environment for a variety of root structures to securely anchor and thrive, making it an ideal choice for smaller gardens, balconies, or flanking a doorway. To assist in maintaining the perfect soil balance, a purpose-fitted polypropylene liner is included as standard; this vital addition helps keep the compost tidy while simultaneously helping the contained plants resist the damaging consequences of waterlogging.
Manufactured using responsibly sourced timber that complies with strict environmental legislation, this modern container is an environmentally conscious choice for discerning gardeners. The raw wood undergoes a rigorous pressure-treatment process before reaching you, furnishing it with necessary defence against insect attacks and helping the structure resist weather-induced rot. Supplied with a wonderfully natural timber finish, its smooth exterior serves as a blank canvas, allowing you to apply exterior paint or wood stain to flawlessly complement your current garden décor.

Finish - Smooth planed timber
Planter Capacity - 27L
Treatment - Pressure-treated (can be painted or stained if desired). Delivered flat-packed for easy construction

Make the Most of Your Planter
The neat, symmetrical shape of the Rowlinson Marberry Square Planter makes it an incredibly versatile asset for structuring your exterior spaces. Positioning a matching pair of these contemporary cubes on either side of a front entrance or at the top of a flight of steps instantly establishes a welcoming, formal symmetry. Their compact 400 mm width means they can easily be tucked into tight balcony corners or used to punctuate a long, paved pathway, especially when planted with structural evergreens like clipped buxus or dwarf conifers.
To guarantee your chosen botanical displays flourish year after year, utilise the pre-assembled form and fitted liner by dropping a handful of coarse gravel into the base before adding your 27L of high-quality compost. This minor preparation significantly boosts drainage, helping the potting medium resist becoming saturated during the heavier autumn and winter rains. Take advantage of the planter's versatile size by treating it as a seasonal showcase: fill it with a vibrant mix of trailing lobelia and bright geraniums in the summer, then switch to hardy cyclamen and trailing ivy to keep your patio looking vibrant through the colder months.

Planter Maintenance
The Rowlinson Marberry Square Planter is made from pressure-treated timbers for excellent durability and longevity. Rowlinson’s pressure-treated products do not require annual re-treatment. If desired can be painted or stained. An anti-rot solution in the timber structure improves resistance to rot. The treatment may leave a greenish tinge on the wood; this is normal and will grey over time. The manufacturer advises that if you want to paint your planter with a different colour, ensure the treatment you choose is recommended for pressure-treated timber.
