Drip tray 60x45 cm for Fenice planter

What it is for

It collects the water draining from the planter's drainage holes, preventing marks and runoff on floors, terraces and windowsills. It is the accessory designed for the 60 cm Fenice rectangular resin planter (SKU CASFENICE60), whose shape and rim it mirrors. It fits under the base. Anyone keeping planters indoors, on a tiled balcony or on a wooden surface will find this pairing the simplest way to avoid moisture damage, without having to move the planter at every watering.

How to use it

Place the drip tray in its final position before filling the planter: once loaded with compost, the 60 cm planter becomes heavy to lift. Then set the planter down, aligning its base with the central recess.

After each watering check the level: water standing for days encourages root rot and mosquitoes. Empty it, or soak it up with a sponge if the tray is full and the planter cannot be moved. In summer, with thirsty plants, you can leave a thin film of water for a few hours on the hottest days, no longer. In winter keep it dry: ice in the tray blocks drainage.

Frequently asked questions

Does it also fit under other 60 cm planters?

It is designed exclusively for the 60 cm Fenice rectangular resin planter. The base has recesses and raised points that follow the base of that model, so on planters from other ranges it sits unstably. If your planter is not a Fenice, it is better to choose the drip tray matching that series.

Is the resin frost and sun resistant?

The resin used for the Fenice range withstands the temperature swings of an outdoor balcony and does not chip like terracotta. The dove-grey colour is stable under sun exposure. The main precaution remains one: do not leave standing water inside that can freeze during winter frosts.

Why isn't the base smooth?

The ribbing and the central circular relief keep the planter's base slightly raised above the floor of the tray. This way the drainage holes are not submerged in the collected water and the compost does not draw up moisture by capillary action, a common problem with flat drip trays.
