Classic Tower DPC30 is a round Prosperplast planter in anthracite, widening towards the top and finished with a rolled rim. The walls carry a matt, coarse stone-look texture and the body is moulded from plastic. The manufacturer describes it as a taller version of the Classic planter and lists it under the symbol DPC30-S433.
How much room it takes
The planter is 30 cm across and 50 cm tall. It stands on a 30 cm circle of ground and the plant only starts half a metre above that — a height worth comparing with whatever will stand beside it: a railing, a bench or a step. Within the Classic Tower family DPC30 is the smallest of three symbols; the other two measure 40 and 48 cm in diameter.
The manufacturer states a capacity of 20 l. For the same amount of substrate a slim upright body takes up less floor area than a low bowl, which matters where the width of the passage beside the planter is the constraint.
What comes in the box
An insert is included — an inner pot that drops into the outer body. The plant is potted in the insert and lifted out with it, without emptying the whole planter, so no separate container has to be bought.
Whether it can stay outdoors
The manufacturer declares increased resistance to sunlight and low temperatures, and high resistance to mechanical damage. This is a planter meant to stand outside all year — it does not have to be brought in for the winter, and the anthracite shade does not fade in full sun.
