BALCONERA Color 50
The BALCONERA Color 50 transforms a railing, a wall, or a narrow windowsill into a complete green line, with a clean rectangular shape and elegant matte surface. Flowers, aromatic plants, and small vegetables take center stage, while the planter remains discreet and modern. The removable plant liner allows you to plant comfortably on a bench and then place it in the outer planter body, while the genuine LECHUZA self-watering system makes daily care more manageable.

LECHUZA Classic System
Water is stored below. The roots draw up what they need.
The provided LECHUZA-PON is placed over the separating base and creates the zone that delivers moisture to the roots. Once the initial rooting period is completed, the reservoir is filled through the special filling shaft, and the water-level indicator shows when the water reaches MAX or MIN.
- For the first few weeks, water from above, as in a conventional planter.
- After rooting, fill the water reservoir from the filling shaft up to the MAX mark.
- In an uncovered outdoor area, remove the drainage plug so that excess rainwater can escape.

Built for outdoors
The high-quality plastic is lightweight, resistant to breakage, UV exposure, and weather conditions.
From planting to self-watering in four steps
The correct start helps the roots fully utilize the Classic System.
Place the separator base, the filling shaft, the indicator, and the provided LECHUZA-PON as the base layer.
Add suitable substrate and evenly distribute plants and weight inside the removable plant liner.
Secure the outer planter with the optional balcony brackets or place it on a stable, flat surface.
Initially, you water from the top. When the roots reach the moisture zone, you use the water reservoir and the MIN/MAX indicator.
The planter stays. The plants move.
The BALCONERA outer planter body can remain mounted while the plant liner lifts out using its recessed handles. This lets you plant, clean or move the arrangement away from extreme weather without dismantling the complete installation.
The indicator helps — checking is still necessary
The reservoir reduces the frequency of watering, but consumption changes with sun, wind, and planting density. During heat waves or on very exposed balconies, check the indicator and substrate moisture daily.

Frequently asked questions
Are the balcony brackets included?
No. The LECHUZA balcony brackets and their optional extension are sold separately. The BALCONERA can also be placed freely on a stable, flat surface.
What does the All-in-One Set include?
Includes the BALCONERA outer planter body Color 50, a removable plant liner with recessed handles, the Classic System with water-level indicator, and LECHUZA-PON for the base layer. The plant and additional substrate are not included.
Do I fill the reservoir immediately after planting?
For the first few weeks, water from above, until the roots reach the moisture zone. Then you can transition to reservoir watering: fill it about halfway and observe if the level drops in the following days. When the plant starts drawing water, use the filling shaft and the MAX indicator normally.
When do I refill the reservoir?
When the indicator reaches MIN, allow the appropriate dry phase for your plants and then fill up to MAX. Its duration depends on the type, location, temperature, and wind. On very hot days, check the indicator and the substrate moisture daily.
Is it suitable for outdoor use and rain?
Yes. For use in an uncovered outdoor area, remove the drain plug from the base so excess rainwater can drain away, reducing the risk of waterlogging.
Can I use it without hanging it?
Yes. It can stand on a sturdy, flat surface protected from strong wind. Ensure the surface supports the entire planter base and can bear the weight when it is planted and filled with water.
What plant height can I use?
LECHUZA specifies a maximum plant height of 30 cm for the BALCONERA. Distribute the weight evenly and check that the height and growth of the plants do not affect the stability of the planter.
