How does the GreenUp balcony planter work? The planter is placed through and against the railing. Thanks to its smart design, the planter remains stable while the outside section "floats" on the exterior of your balcony. This allows you to have plants and flowers on both sides of your balcony railing.

Extended description
Will this fit on my balcony?
To ensure you get the most enjoyment from your new planter, it's important to check the type of fence beforehand. Our planters are specifically designed for fences with straight bars.
Suitable for:
- Fences with vertical bars (like most balcony railings).
- Fence dimensions: max 11 cm width between bars and max 2.5 cm bar thickness.
Not suitable for:
- Decorative fences: Fences with scrolls, arches, or irregular embellishments between the bars.
- Wide wooden fences: Fences or railings with wide planks and little space between the planks.
Technical specifications
Directions for use
Filling the GreenUp planter:
For the best results and stable placement, fill the Vercony GreenUp balcony planter in layers. Start on the inside, meaning on the balcony side, with a layer of approximately 3 cm of gravel and add about 3 cm of hydro granules to the front. Then fill the planter with potting soil and place the plants, putting the heaviest and largest plant on the inside. By keeping the center of gravity on the balcony side, the planter remains well-balanced and stable, even in varying weather conditions such as wind.
Fence placement:
Place the planter securely against the railings of your balcony. Slide the planter completely through the railing until the GreenUp planter is flush against the railing's bars.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many plants can I put in one GreenUp planter?
Typically, 2 to 3 balcony plants thrive in the 21-litre container. Choose compact varieties for a fuller effect and place the largest plant on the inside (the balcony side) for stable balance.
How often do I need to water the plants?
Thanks to the built-in water reservoir, you need to water less frequently than with a regular pot. In summer, this is an average of 2 to 3 times a week; in spring and autumn, it's less. Feel whether the top layer of soil feels dry.
Can the planter stand in full sun without the roots getting too hot?
Yes. The thick, UV-resistant plastic heats up less quickly than thin plastic pots, and the water reservoir keeps the roots cooler. During a prolonged heatwave, water the plants a little more often.
Can I change the planting seasonally?
Certainly. You can redecorate the planter every season: flowering summer plants in summer and evergreen or frost-resistant varieties in winter. The planter itself simply stays outside.
Which plants provide the most privacy against intrusion?
Choose taller or densely growing varieties such as ornamental grasses, compact bamboo, or climbing plants. Because the planter goes through the railings, the greenery grows on both sides of your fence, providing extra screening from view.
Can I use the GreenUp on other fences with railings, not just a balcony?
Yes. The GreenUp fits on any fence with straight, vertical railings, so not just a balcony railing but also, for example, a patio railing or garden fence with railings. Please check if the railings meet the dimensions (see the 'Does the planter fit on my balcony?' dropdown).

Green balcony inspiration
See examples of how you can green your balcony using the Vercony GreenUp.
Inspiration
Completely green with ivy
Ivy (Hedera) is the ideal match for a slatted balcony. It is a strong, evergreen climbing plant that makes few demands. If you place the base in a Vercony planter on the ground, the tendrils can beautifully weave their way through the slats.
Inspiration
Herb base
Nothing beats the smell of fresh basil or mint on a summer evening. With Vercony planters, you can transform your balcony floor into a compact vegetable garden.
Inspiration
Flower world
The Vercony planters are designed so that you can plant flowers on both the inside and outside of your balcony railing. For example, you can plant smaller flowers like violets on the outside of your railing and larger flowers such as dahlias on the inside.
Inspiration
Vegetable garden
Do you dream of fresh tomatoes, crispy lettuce or your own strawberries, but don't have a garden? A vegetable garden on your balcony is the perfect solution. With Vercony planters, you can create a stable base on the ground, directly against the railings. This is ideal for vegetables that could use some support.
