With the Bloomers Rail Planter, you can enjoy harvesting herbs, vegetables, and flowers even if you live somewhere with limited space. The Bloomers Railing Planter is designed for dimensional lumber, metal, and plastic railings that are 1.25” (traditional metal railings) to 3.5” wide (nominal 2x4 railings). The bottom width measures 6" across and rests on railings 5.5” wide and larger with no overhang. Stabilizers are provided which can be attached to the bottom to brace against posts and uprights. To secure the Rail Planter, insert the stabilizers at the desired spacing and gently pound in with a rubber mallet. Made from durable polyethylene resin, this planter can withstand harsh weather conditions and won’t crack from exposure or light impacts. It’s BPA-free and perfectly safe for contact with edibles. Additionally, the drainage holes at the bottom help reduce overwatering and associated root rot.
