For the Inner West climate, we recommend weather-resistant materials like treated hardwood, powder-coated metal, or high-quality composites. These materials withstand Sydney's sun, rain, and occasional salt air. The best choice depends on your specific location, aesthetic preferences, and maintenance willingness. We can guide you to the most suitable option for your situation.

Frequently Asked Questions About Planter Boxes in the Inner West
-
What's the best material for planter boxes in the Inner West climate?
-
How do you ensure proper drainage in planter boxes?
Proper drainage is crucial for plant health. We incorporate drainage holes in the base of all our planter boxes. For added measure, we often include a layer of gravel or lightweight aggregate at the bottom before adding soil. This creates a drainage layer that prevents water-logging. For balconies or areas where water runoff is a concern, we can install self-contained drainage systems or recommend self-watering planter boxes.
-
Can planter boxes be used on balconies in the Inner West?
Absolutely! Planter boxes are an excellent solution for balcony gardening, common in many Inner West apartments. We design lightweight yet sturdy boxes that are safe for balcony use. We consider factors like weight distribution, wind exposure, and railing attachment when necessary. We can also create custom sizes to maximize your balcony space while ensuring compliance with strata regulations.
-
What types of plants work well in planter boxes in the Inner West?
A wide variety of plants thrive in planter boxes in the Inner West. For edibles, herbs like basil, rosemary, and mint do well, as do compact vegetable varieties. For ornamentals, native plants like grevilleas and banksias are excellent low-maintenance options. Succulents and drought-tolerant plants are perfect for sunny, exposed areas. We can provide plant recommendations based on your specific location, sunlight conditions, and gardening preferences.
-
How do I maintain my planter boxes?
Maintenance for planter boxes is generally straightforward. Regular watering, fertilizing, and occasional pruning are key. The specific care depends on your chosen plants and box material. For wooden boxes, we recommend an annual check and re-seal if necessary. Metal and composite boxes may need periodic cleaning. Always ensure drainage holes remain clear. We provide comprehensive care instructions tailored to your specific planter box setup and can offer ongoing maintenance services if desired.
