What is a Flatpot?
A Flatpot is a fully grown Mediterranean plant, cultivated in a wide and shallow container: 50 cm in diameter and 20 cm high. Compared to a young plant, it arrives with a substantial volume, ready to be planted.
It is the solution for those who want an instant-effect garden: flower beds, borders, hedges, and green roofs that look “finished” from day one, without waiting years for the plants to grow.
Why choose Flatpots
- Instant effect: pre-grown plants that immediately add structure and colour.
- Easy installation: the low, wide container is easy to handle and plant.
- Mediterranean plants: species selected to withstand heat and drought once established.
- For homeowners and professionals: ideal for landscapers and designers who need to deliver a ready-made garden.
- Shipping included in the price.
How to choose the right Flatpot
Start with trees and large shrubs for height and shade, plants for hedges and windbreaks to enclose and protect, Mediterranean aromatic plants for fragrance and flowers, and Flatpot for the seaside for coastal gardens.
On each product page, you will find information on exposure, resistance to cold, drought and salt spray, maximum height and flowering season, so you can choose the right plants for your space.
How to plant a Flatpot
Choose well-drained soil that has been deeply worked. Dig a hole slightly wider than the container and as deep as the root ball, remove the container, place the plant at ground level, fill and firm well, then water thoroughly.
During the first few months, water regularly to promote establishment; then switch to infrequent but heavy watering. The best times are autumn and spring; it is best to avoid July–August and January–February.
