Product Description
The Elho 27cm Living Black Green Basics Growpot is a practical and reliable plant pot for growing vegetables, herbs, fruit, and flowers. Developed in collaboration with professional growers, this planter has been carefully designed to create an ideal growing environment for plants at every stage, from young seedlings and cuttings to fully mature plants.

With a 27cm diameter, the pot offers ample space for a wide range of plants, including tomatoes, chillies, herbs, salad crops, and decorative plants for patios or balconies.

For best results, it can be paired with a matching Elho Green Basics saucer to manage excess water and maintain healthy moisture levels.
