£0.45

The 29cm Square Plant Pot Saucer in Black is a durable plastic drip tray designed to sit beneath square plant pots and containers, catching excess irrigation water and helping protect greenhouse benches, floors, patios and display areas from unwanted runoff.

With a nominal size of 29cm square, this mid-sized saucer is a practical choice for appropriately sized square nursery pots, decorative planters and other container-grown plants.

Its solid base and raised sides provide a defined collection area for water draining from the pot above. This helps contain runoff, compost particles and irrigation residue rather than allowing them to spread across the surrounding surface.

The square format makes efficient use of space beneath square containers, while the black finish provides a discreet appearance for professional growing, garden retail and domestic use.

This 29cm version forms part of a three-size square saucer range, with 25cm and 34cm options also available.

Why choose the 29cm Square Plant Pot Saucer?

  • 29cm square format - designed for appropriately sized square pots and planters.

  • Solid base - retains drainage water for convenient management.

  • Helps protect surfaces - useful on greenhouse benches, patios, floors and display areas.
  • Efficient square footprint - pairs naturally with square nursery and decorative pots.
  • Durable plastic construction - practical for regular growing and display applications.
  • Reusable - can be emptied, cleaned and used repeatedly.
  • Black finish - unobtrusive beneath most plant containers.
  • Three sizes available - choose from 25cm, 29cm and 34cm square saucers.

Designed for square plant pots

Square pots are widely used where efficient use of growing space is important. Their straight-sided footprint allows containers to be positioned closely together on greenhouse benches, staging and retail displays.

Using a square saucer beneath a square pot follows the container footprint more closely than an oversized round saucer, helping make efficient use of the available space while still providing an area to collect drainage water.

The 29cm size provides a useful middle option between the smaller 25cm and larger 34cm square saucers.

Ideal for square pots & planters

The 29cm Square Saucer can be used beneath a variety of appropriately sized containers in professional and domestic growing environments.

Typical applications include:

  • Square nursery pots
  • Decorative square planters
  • Greenhouse containers
  • Patio plants
  • Container-grown ornamentals
  • Herbs and edible crops
  • Indoor plant containers
  • Garden centre plant displays

Always measure the actual base of the container before selecting a saucer. The usable internal dimensions will be smaller than the nominal 29cm overall size.

Catch runoff & protect surrounding surfaces

Free drainage is important for many container-grown plants, but the water leaving the pot after irrigation can create puddles and carry compost or fertiliser residue onto surrounding surfaces.

Positioning a saucer beneath the pot provides a dedicated collection area for this excess moisture, helping keep growing areas, patios and plant displays cleaner.

Once the container has finished draining, unwanted standing water can be removed from the saucer as required.

Useful for top watering & bottom watering

During conventional top watering, the saucer collects excess water passing through the drainage holes in the bottom of the plant pot.

Where appropriate for the plant and growing medium, water can also be introduced directly into the saucer for bottom watering. Moisture can then be absorbed upwards through the drainage openings in the pot.

Plants that require free-draining conditions should not normally be left standing permanently in water. Remove excess moisture after watering where necessary.

Practical for growers, nurseries & garden centres

Square saucers provide a straightforward way to manage drainage beneath individual production pots and retail plants.

Professional growers can use them where individual containers require localised runoff collection, while garden centres can position them beneath suitable display plants to help prevent water spreading across retail surfaces.

The simple black finish works particularly well beneath conventional nursery containers and keeps the saucer visually unobtrusive.

Available in three square sizes

25cm Square Saucer For appropriately sized smaller square plant pots and containers.
29cm Square Saucer This mid-sized option for suitable square nursery pots and planters.
34cm Square Saucer The largest size in the range for appropriately sized larger square containers.

How to choose the correct square saucer size

Measure the width and depth of the plant pot at its base rather than relying on the maximum dimensions across the top of the container. Many square pots taper towards the bottom.

Both base dimensions should fit comfortably within the usable internal area of the saucer, ideally leaving some surrounding space to collect drainage water.

A pot described as 29cm square will not necessarily fit inside this saucer because its usable internal dimensions are smaller than the nominal external measurement.

Simple cleaning & maintenance

Empty unwanted standing water regularly and remove compost, leaves and other debris that accumulates within the saucer.

Periodic cleaning helps prevent growing media and fertiliser residues building up. In commercial nurseries and growing environments, follow established crop hygiene procedures when moving reusable equipment between production areas.

When used outside, check the saucer following prolonged rainfall and remove excess water where required.
