Description
Maximise the vertical potential of your garden with the Rowlinson Square Planter and Lattice. This brilliantly designed unit merges a classic cubic planter base with a towering, integrated diamond-lattice screen, instantly adding structural height and a touch of traditional charm to your outdoor living areas. Whether you are looking to disguise an unsightly boundary fence or create a stunning, living focal point on a compact balcony, the sturdy lattice framework provides the ultimate support for vigorous climbers to weave and flourish.
Despite its space-saving 400 x 400 mm footprint, the base of this elegant unit delivers a highly accommodating soil capacity of approximately 34 Litres. This generous volume ensures that deep-rooted climbing varieties have the space they need to establish strong, healthy root systems, which is crucial for supporting their tall, upward growth. The robust timber construction of the base provides ample support for heavy, damp compost.
Manufactured entirely from responsibly sourced timber that satisfies strict environmental guidelines, this vertical planter is a highly sustainable choice for the eco-conscious gardener. To ensure it withstands the unpredictable British climate, the raw wood is subjected to an intensive pressure-treatment process, providing the necessary protection against insect damage and helping the structure resist weather-related rot throughout the seasons. Supplied in an appealing natural timber finish, the lightly textured surface serves as a fantastic blank canvas, giving you the complete freedom to apply a coloured outdoor stain or paint to perfectly harmonise with your home's exterior palette.

Finish - Smooth planed timber
Planter Capacity - 34L
Treatment - Pressure-treated (can be painted or stained if desired). Delivered flat-packed for easy construction

Make the Most of Your Planter
The soaring 1400 mm height of the Rowlinson Square Planter and Lattice makes it an unparalleled asset for drawing the eye upwards and adding a multi-dimensional element to flat patios. Position it strategically against a bare brick wall to instantly soften the hard landscaping with a curtain of foliage, or place a matching pair at either end of a garden bench to create a wonderfully fragrant, enclosed seating area. The integrated diamond lattice is absolutely perfect for supporting a classic English climbing rose, a highly scented honeysuckle, or a vibrant, sprawling clematis.
To guarantee your climbing displays thrive year after year, take full advantage of the deep base by scattering a generous layer of drainage crocks or coarse gravel before pouring in your 34 Litres of premium potting mix. This crucial preparatory step drastically improves aeration around the roots, helping the deep soil profile resist becoming waterlogged during the wetter winter months. By underplanting your chosen climber with a low-growing, trailing variety, such as delicate lobelia or trailing ivy, you can beautifully soften the edges of the base while ensuring the entire structure remains a captivating, blooming feature from the ground right up to the decorative pyramid caps.

Planter Maintenance
The Rowlinson Square Planter and Lattice 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.
