Many urban gardeners ask us, "Do your planter boxes come with saucers to catch water?" The answer depends on the specific model you choose. Our standard urban planter boxes typically include matching saucers to protect your floors and surfaces from water damage. These saucers are designed to catch excess water that drains through the soil, preventing messy leaks on your balcony, patio, or indoor flooring.
For our self-watering planter models, we've integrated a more advanced system that includes a built-in water reservoir rather than traditional saucers. This innovative design allows plants to draw water as needed while preventing overflow. The reservoir system actually reduces the need for frequent watering and eliminates the risk of water damage completely.
If you're gardening in spaces where water protection is crucial – such as on wooden decks, balconies above other units, or indoor areas – we strongly recommend selecting planter boxes with either attached saucers or our self-watering systems. All our saucers are made from the same durable, UV-resistant materials as the planters themselves and feature a slight lip to contain any overflow effectively.
For those who already own our planters without saucers, we offer matching saucers as separate accessories that perfectly complement your existing urban garden setup.
