£0.69

The 35cm Round Plant Pot Saucer in Black is a durable plastic drip tray designed to collect excess water beneath plant pots and containers, helping keep greenhouse benches, floors, patios and other growing surfaces cleaner during routine watering.

With a nominal diameter of 35cm (14 inches), this practical saucer is suited to appropriately sized medium plant pots, nursery containers and decorative planters.

The solid base catches water draining through the pot above rather than allowing it to spread freely across the surrounding surface. It can also contain small amounts of compost or growing media washed through the drainage holes during irrigation.

Manufactured from durable black plastic, the saucer is lightweight, reusable and unobtrusive beneath conventional black nursery pots and a wide range of decorative containers.

The 35cm saucer forms part of a five-size range comprising 30cm, 35cm, 40cm, 45cm and 50cm options.

  • Reusable design - can be emptied, cleaned and used repeatedly.

  • Five sizes available - choose the most appropriate saucer for the pot being used.

Ideal for medium-sized plant pots & containers

Free-draining plant pots allow excess irrigation water to escape from the growing medium, helping maintain a suitable balance of moisture and air around the roots. The resulting runoff, however, needs to be managed.

Positioning a 35cm saucer beneath an appropriately sized container provides a simple collection area directly below the pot.

The saucer can be useful beneath appropriate:

  • Nursery pots
  • Decorative planters
  • Patio pots
  • Greenhouse plants
  • Container-grown ornamentals
  • Herbs and edible plants
  • Garden centre display plants
  • Suitable fabric growing pots

Always measure the actual base of the plant pot before selecting a saucer. The usable internal diameter will be smaller than the nominal 35cm overall measurement.

Catch runoff & keep growing areas cleaner

Water draining freely from pots can create puddles and leave growing media or fertiliser deposits on the surrounding surface.

A saucer catches this runoff directly beneath the container, making excess water easier to manage and helping keep greenhouse benches, indoor growing spaces, patios and display areas cleaner.

The saucer can simply be emptied once the container has finished draining, helping prevent unwanted standing water around the pot.

Useful for top watering & bottom watering

When watering conventionally from above, the saucer catches moisture passing through the drainage holes in the base of the container.

Where suitable for the plant and growing medium, the saucer can also be used for bottom watering. Water placed in the saucer can be absorbed upwards through the drainage openings in the pot.

Remove unwanted standing water once the plant has absorbed the required moisture. Many container plants should not be left permanently sitting in water.

Practical for growers, nurseries & garden centres

Plant pot saucers provide a simple solution wherever irrigation runoff needs to be contained beneath individual pots.

Professional growers can use them beneath selected containers on benches or growing surfaces, while garden centres can use them beneath display plants where excess water could otherwise spread into customer areas.

The black finish complements conventional nursery pots and remains relatively unobtrusive beneath the container.

Available in five practical sizes

The round saucer range is available in five nominal diameters:

30cm (12 inches) For appropriately sized smaller plant pots and containers.
35cm (14 inches) This size, suitable for appropriately sized medium pots and planters.
40cm (16 inches) For medium-to-large nursery pots and decorative containers.
45cm (18 inches) For appropriately sized larger pots and planters.
50cm (20 inches) The largest option in the range for suitably sized large containers.

How to choose the correct plant saucer size

Measure the bottom of the plant pot rather than relying solely on its advertised top diameter. Many plant pots taper considerably towards their base.

The pot should sit comfortably within the usable internal area of the saucer while leaving sufficient space around it to collect drainage water.

A pot described as 35cm in diameter will not necessarily fit inside a nominal 35cm saucer because the internal diameter of the saucer is smaller than its overall external measurement.

Simple cleaning & maintenance

Empty unwanted standing water regularly and remove compost, leaves and other debris that accumulates during use.

Periodic cleaning helps prevent the build-up of growing media and fertiliser residues. In professional growing environments, follow the nursery's normal hygiene procedures when moving reusable equipment between different crops.

When the saucer is used outdoors, check it following prolonged rainfall to ensure plants requiring free-draining conditions are not left sitting in excess water.
