How do I 'pot-up' my plants?
It’s super easy. Simply follow these instructions.
Can they be used indoors and out?
Yes, all of our pots have been tested in Australian conditions and are suitable for use outdoors in rain, hail, sun or snow. They also look great indoors.
How do I stop water leaking out the base of the pot?
If you’re using your pots inside and don’t want any water run-off; the best solution is to purchase some pot trays from your local hardware store or nursery. Or, if you would prefer not to use a tray, we recommend keeping your plant in the nursery tub and simply placing inside the pot. Remove your plant to water and place back in the pot once dry.
Do they have drainage holes?
Each Willow Range pot comes with 2 x 30mm drainage holes. This ensures your plants will never sit in wet feet. Each Bad Names Range pot comes with drainage holes.
Are they waterproof?
Our entire range of pots are not suitable for holding water.
Can I paint my pots?
We strongly advise not to paint your pots. Doing so will void the warranty.
