Q: What is the difference between the wall kit and the balcony kit Cilindro?
Two fundamental differences. The Cilindro balcony kit (railing/support, unperforated pot) is designed to be placed on a railing or support — the pot is unperforated, it can be used as is as a decorative pot or perforated as needed. The Cilindro wall kit (wall mounting, originally perforated pot) is designed to be mounted on a wall — the pot is already perforated for immediate direct cultivation. Same size Ø20xH14cm, same two colors, two supports, and two very distinct uses.
Q: How do you install the wall mounting?
The metal wall mounting is fixed to the wall with a screw and a plug suitable for the wall material (brick, concrete, wood). Once the mounting is in place, the pot can be placed on it in a few seconds. The complete installation — mounting + pot + saucer — takes a few minutes without any special tools beyond a screwdriver or a drill for the wall screw.
Q: Is the Ø18cm saucer really necessary for a wall pot?
Absolutely — it is the most important accessory for a perforated wall pot. Without a saucer, the water that drains through the drainage holes runs directly down the wall and creates moisture stains and rings. The Ø18cm saucer collects all this water and protects the wall. It also serves as a small water reserve accessible to the roots.
Q: Can this kit stay on an exposed balcony all year round?
Yes — balcony & terrace. Polypropylene is tested down to -20 °C and treated with UV protection in both colors. The metal wall mount withstands normal weather conditions. Occasional wiping of the mount extends its lifespan.
Q: Which plants are best suited for this wall pot Ø20cm?
Compact and lightweight plants — herbs (basil, parsley, thyme, rosemary), lightweight trailing plants (lobelia, bacopa), small succulents, small annuals (impatiens, dwarf begonias). Avoid plants that are too heavy or bulky that could unbalance the wall mount.
