About Our Elho Plant Pots
Water management differs by range, and it is worth knowing which is which. The Barcelona balcony troughs have raised cone overflows moulded into the floor: water above the cone drains through the base and what sits below is held as a small reservoir. The railing planters work on the same principle. Both should be left as they are, as drilling defeats the design.
The green ‘basics’ growpots are conventional outdoor pots with open drainage holes, marked with a drainage symbol on the pack. The indoor covers (Vibes, Jazz and Winery) have no holes, and that is deliberate: it keeps water off a windowsill or a floorboard. Keep the plant in its nursery pot inside the cover and lift it out to water.
The Barcelona troughs have a matching clip-under tray, useful where drips would land on a neighbour's balcony. The railing planters take a rail up to 6cm wide, which covers most London balcony railings, but always measure before ordering.
