SUPPLIER FOCUS CASE STUDIES CASE STUDIES AMBEROL Adding colour is a great way of standing out amongst the greys and browns that make up our streets and public places. So, how can you add an injection of colour to your landscape without breaking the bank? Flowers enhance any space - and if planted in Amberol’s self-watering containers, they are easy to grow and maintain. Thanks to their built-in water reservoir, most self-watering planters need watering just once a week - even in the driest conditions, taking in water and nutrients as required to ensure optimal growth. Plus, Amberol’s self-watering planters come in a range of vibrant colours from sky blue to cherry red, creating instant colour. Tips for creating great floral displays in planters: • Be adventurous in your use of planter. The Amberol range of self-watering planters includes wood effect barrels, half barrels and stone effect troughs to bring a classic twist, as well as beehive planters to create cascades of colour and barrier baskets to brighten railings and fences. • Use containers at different heights such as hanging baskets as well as up- the-pole baskets and floor standing planters to create visual impact. • Create a centrepiece using fountain and tiered planters - these are particularly effective in squares and larger spaces. So, from hanging baskets to stone effect troughs to tiered planters, Amberol’s self-watering planters create the wow effect in any public space.
