Our Top Ivyline Planters for Gardening Beginners
1. Hampton Copper Set of 3 Herb Planters With Tray
Perfect for: Herbs
Why we love it: Inspired by the copper kitchen pans used at the Tudor palace of Hampton Court, the Ivyline Hampton set-of-3 copper herb planters with tray add a traditional touch to your windowsills and garden.
Plus, the tray will catch excess water, preventing root rot and ensure soil doesn't stay soggy, which can be detrimental to herb growth. It also protects surfaces from water damage and soil stains!
Style Tip: Place on a sunny windowsill with basil, mint, and parsley for an easy-access kitchen garden.
2. Cleo Planters
Perfect for: Vegetables and flowers
Why we love it:
The Cleo collection is available in a rainbow of eye-catching colours. Made with a unique water reservoir system that helps prevent root rot in the wet season, this system can also be used to stop plants from drying out during the warmer months.
The Cleo collection is available as round and square planters, vases, railing flower boxes, and troughs.
Style Tip: Mix and match colours and styles for a layered container garden effect and an eye catching display!
Pro-gardening tip: These planters are also on wheels, so you can easily move your plants to where the sun or shade is!
3. Celine Recycled Planter
Perfect for: The conscious gardener
Why we love it: Made from stone composite, a natural and 100% recycled material, the Celine planter looks stunning inside your home or in your garden with its frost-resistant and UV stable properties.
The unique water reservoir in the base allows plants to draw up water in dry conditions and avoid roots sitting in waterlogged soil when wet.
Style Tip: Perfect for styling indoor and outdoor to easily transform your alfresco dining set or for bringing the outdoors, in! Gardening for indoor and out!
4. Wall Plant Stand with Planters
Perfect for: Space saving gardening
Why we love it: Liven up bare walls and make the most of vertical space with the Vertical metal wall plant stand.
Designed with six planters and resistant to frost and rust, this lightweight design is great for giving your garden a sensational uplift.
Style Tip: Add a selection of herbs for a fragrant display in your outdoor space.
5. Galvanised Troughs and Planters
Perfect for: The cottage gardener
Why we love it: The Outdoor Galvanised Trough brings a touch of country charm to outdoor spaces, perfect for creating a beautiful display with its extra-large size and making gardening easier.
Its rustic galvanised finish complements lush plantings like hydrangeas and lavender, adding elegance to gardens or patios.
