What's the difference between the pack of three and the pack of five?
Only the quantity. Both packs contain the same 20 cm square mesh basket, so choose based on how many plants you're potting up.
How do I use the basket once it arrives?
How do I use the basket once it arrives?
Line it with hessian, fill with aquatic compost, and plant directly into that; the mesh sides then let water and nutrients reach the roots.
This mesh planting basket is designed for potting marginal and pond plants, with open sides that let water and nutrients reach the root ball as the plant grows. It helps roots settle in without the compost becoming waterlogged inside a solid-sided pot. Choose a pack of three or a pack of five baskets to suit the number of plants you're working with.
This square mesh planting basket is built for marginal and pond plants that need steady contact between their roots and the surrounding water. The mesh sides let water and nutrients pass straight through, which helps roots take hold rather than sitting in compost that's cut off from the pond. You get the baskets themselves, supplied as a pack of three or a pack of five; hessian lining, aquatic compost and the plants are sold separately, so factor these in if you don't already have them. What sets this basket apart is the combination of an open mesh structure for root growth and a square shape that's straightforward to line up with others on a planting shelf, sized for marginal pond plants rather than larger aquatics.
