2. Setup and Assembly

This product requires assembly. Please follow these instructions carefully. It is recommended to assemble on a flat, clean surface.

2.1. Package Contents:

Verify that all components are present before beginning assembly. The package typically includes:

• Planter box panels (sides and bottom)
• Trellis panels
• Connecting rods/poles for trellis
• Connectors and fasteners
• Base supports/feet

2.2. Assembly Steps:

1. Prepare the Planter Boxes: Assemble the side panels of each planter box. Ensure the grooves align correctly for a secure fit. Attach the bottom panel, making sure the drainage holes are positioned as desired.
2. Attach Base Supports: Secure the base supports or feet to the bottom of each planter box. This provides stability and elevates the planter slightly for better drainage.
3. Assemble Trellis Sections: Connect the individual trellis panels. These typically interlock or attach with provided connectors. Ensure they form a stable grid structure.
4. Integrate Trellis with Planter: Insert the lower ends of the trellis connecting rods into the designated slots on the planter boxes. Secure them firmly.
5. Connect Multiple Units (Optional): If assembling multiple units, use the provided connectors to link adjacent planter boxes and trellis sections. This allows for flexible configurations, such as a continuous privacy screen or multiple individual units.
6. Final Check: Ensure all connections are secure and the entire structure is stable.

3.2. Planting:

1. Fill with Soil: Fill the planter boxes with appropriate potting mix or garden soil, leaving some space from the top edge.
2. Plant Selection: Choose plants suitable for raised beds. For the trellis, select climbing plants such as roses, clematis, morning glories, or vegetables like cucumbers and peas.
3. Position Plants: Place your plants in the soil, ensuring adequate spacing for growth. For climbing plants, position them near the trellis.
4. Initial Watering: Water thoroughly after planting to settle the soil and provide moisture to the roots.

3.3. Utilizing the Trellis:

Gently guide the tendrils or stems of climbing plants onto the trellis as they grow. You may use soft ties or clips to secure them initially, encouraging upward growth. The trellis also supports hanging planters.

4.1. Watering:

Water plants regularly according to their specific needs. The planter features an integrated water storage and drainage system. Water will be stored in the base and automatically discharged when the storage capacity is exceeded, preventing root rot.

4.2. Cleaning:

Clean the planter and trellis periodically with mild soap and water to remove dirt, dust, and plant debris. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the plastic material.

4.3. Seasonal Care:

In colder climates, consider moving the planters indoors or providing adequate protection during winter months to prolong their lifespan.

5. Troubleshooting

5.1. Trellis Stability:

If the trellis feels unstable, ensure all connecting rods and fasteners are fully engaged and tightened. For added stability in windy conditions, consider securing the trellis to a nearby wall or post using appropriate garden ties (not included).

5.2. Missing or Damaged Parts:

If you find any parts missing or damaged upon unboxing, please contact Garvee customer support immediately for assistance. Do not attempt to force incompatible parts together.

5.3. Assembly Difficulties:

If you encounter difficulties during assembly, re-examine the assembly diagram (Image 2.1) and ensure all components are oriented correctly. Sometimes, a slight adjustment or re-alignment of panels can resolve fitting issues.
