Our Flower Boxes Come with Endless Possibilities

Gardeners have long cherished flower boxes for their versatility. These remarkable planters offer endless possibilities for various purposes. They come in so many styles that you can use them virtually anywhere.

• Showcase a flower box as a standalone piece on your patio or balcony
• Use them as flower window boxes to enhance your home's curb appeal
• Add brackets and use one as a railing planter to adorn your deck

Contrary to their name, flower boxes aren't limited to only flowers. They can serve as excellent planters for a wide range of vegetation. Imagine using them as vegetable planters, growing your favorite herbs, or experimenting with diverse, colorful blooms.

Trailing plants such as ivy, petunias, vinca, and sweet potato vines bring depth and visual appeal to flower boxes. At the same time, annuals like salvia, geraniums, coleus, zinnia, and begonias make delightful additions.

And let's not forget the beauty of perennials and even some dwarf conifers that can thrive in these versatile planters.

With Self-Watering Flower Boxes You Have Fewer Worries

As if the benefits of our flower boxes weren't already impressive enough, we've taken it a step further by incorporating a self-watering system. Each flower box has a sub-irrigated reservoir at the bottom, ensuring your plants receive a consistent water supply.

Say goodbye to the concerns of underwatering your precious plants and hello to healthier and vibrant foliage. Self-watering flower boxes offer an assortment of benefits to gardeners.

1. Optimal Hydration: Self-watering planters provide plants with the right amount of water they need when they need it. The built-in reservoir or water storage system allows for controlled water distribution, preventing underwater and overwatering. You'll also have to water less often.
2. Optimal Soil Moisture: The reservoir system slowly releases water as the plant's roots absorb moisture, ensuring a steady water supply without waterlogging the soil. This consistent moisture balance promotes healthy root development and reduces the risk of root diseases caused by inconsistent watering practices.
3. Optimal Growth: By providing consistent moisture and reducing plant stress, self-watering flower boxes create optimal plant growth conditions. With a steady water supply and nutrients, plants can focus on healthy root development, foliage growth, and flowering. This leads to more vigorous, vibrant plants with increased resistance to environmental stressors.
4. Optimal Time Savings: With self-watering planters, you can say goodbye to manually watering your plants. Just think. You can go away for the weekend without worrying about your plants getting watered. Enjoy lush, thriving plants with less work and time.
   
   

Ample Space for Lush Growth

Our flower boxes provide ample space for your plants to flourish. With a generous depth of nearly seven inches, these self-watering flower boxes offer abundant room for root development. That ensures your plants receive the nutrients they need to thrive.

That depth adds to their endless growing possibilities.

Use one traditionally by planting your favorite annuals like geraniums, marigolds, zinnias, or dahlias. Or use a flower box for more practical uses, like growing herbs and vegetables. Imagine having basil, thyme, oregano, or cilantro at your fingertips.

We offer two length options – 14-1/2 or 21-1/2 inches – allowing you to choose the size that suits your gardening ambitions. The larger flower box version comfortably accommodates four to six plants, depending on their sizes and varieties.

So you can easily use the thriller-filler-spiller approach when planting your box. Use tall plants like aster or coneflower to add bursts of color, followed by shorter plants to add depth to your planter. Finally, add even more depth with trailing vines like creeping jenny, vinca, or ivy.

The versatility of our flower boxes lets you unleash your creativity by selecting a combination of plants with different colors and textures. Or create a stunning mass display using a single plant type.

Quality Resin Planters That Withstand Nature

Our self-watering flower boxes use Artstone materials. Resin and stone combine to create a lightweight yet incredibly durable planter. They'll last infinitely longer than imported plastic flower boxes. And they won't rot like wood planters or rust like metal planters.

Instead, you'll enjoy these flower boxes for years on end, whether you use them indoors or outdoors. They're frost-resistant, waterproof, and UV-resistant, so you won't have to worry about storing them over the winter. Resin planters offer a host of advantages over other container types.

Resin planters withstand the elements. Whether it's scorching heat, freezing temperatures, or heavy rainfall, these planters resist fading, cracking, and weather-related damage.

Plus, resin planters won't deteriorate, rot, rust, or warp, unlike other planters, ensuring that your investment lasts for years. So you can enjoy a beautiful garden all year round without worrying about their resilience in different weather conditions.

Despite that durability, resin planters are lightweight. So you can move them with ease. That allows you to experiment with different garden layouts and effortlessly adapt to changing sunlight or design preferences.

Create a Space You'll Love with Self-Watering Flower Boxes

No matter how you use them, our flower boxes will highlight any space from your deck to a front porch. The unique marbled look of these planters makes them attractive by themself. But add a mix of colorful plants, and the show really begins.

And with their self-watering feature, these planters will create a lush garden clockwork. They also pair nicely with our other Artstone self-watering planters. Like all Root & Vessel products, our flower boxes have a one-year guarantee.
