Potting Soil & Recommendations

Best long-term results will come with use of a small amount of perlite medium around the outside of the water-minder tray. Finish filling the planter to the bottom of the rim with a light to medium weight potting soil.

18" square patio planters require 56 quarts.

  • Choose a medium weight potting soil that won’t pack down in a driving rain or bake like clay in the sun.
  • Routine use of plant food, according to manufacturers’ directions, will dramatically increase the health, beauty and fullness of the plants in your Madison planter.

Painting

Your Madison planter is made of polyethylene with color and UV blocker infused throughout. The color will not scratch or peel off. To change or refresh the color, consult your paint professional.
