Planters

Just about any plant may be grown in a WINE BARREL PLANTER throughout it's entire life. This is true whether the plant is classified as a house plant, a perennial, an annual, shrub or tree.

Growing your plants in WINE BARREL PLANTERS provides you with a few options that are unavailable to permanent plantings. The ability to move the WINE BARREL PLANTERS around is perhaps the biggest advantage and makes it easy to take your favorite plant with you when you move house. As the seasons and the sun's position changes, you can move your plant to a sunnier or shady spot to fit the cultural needs of the plant.

You will also be able to move plants into the 'limelight' when they come into bloom, or into the background somewhere when they are finished. You will also be able to grow acid loving plants in an area of alkaline soil and vice versa. Remember though, that when you are growing plants in WINE BARREL PLANTERS, that those plants are much more dependent on you to provide their necessities in life.

They are in a limited amount of soil, with their roots restricted, and exposed to the elements far more than if they were field grown. It is important for the plant's health that you pay close attention to watering and feeding requirements of the plant. Plants in wine barrel planters will dry out much sooner and need watering more often.

To determine when the plant needs watering, stick your finger down into the soil and if is dry water the plant thoroughly. Because frequent watering will wash the plant food out of the soil, and the plant will utilize the limited soil nutrients they will be depleted much more rapidly, so a regular feeding program should be established according to the type of plant. During the growing season, either a slow release type plant food should be used or a soluble complete fertilizer should be used every two weeks.
