Rainwater Terrace® is a new multi award winning concept in rainwater collection promoting the reuse of valuable rainwater and “grow your own” sustainability. The unique patented modular design has numerous distinct advantages over other water butts on the market. Rainwater Terrace® not only saves the householder money by reusing rainwater in the garden, its modular design incorporates an integrate
d plant growing system enabling plants and herbs etc. to grow alongside the stored rainwater, creating an attractive addition to any home. Rainwater Terrace helps to keep your stored rainwater fresh, reducing stagnation as it collects first in the top tier and then trickles down through the tiers as they fill and then back to the drain. With each rainfall water circulates through to replenish the system. Water can be drawn off from any tier using the fast flow drain tubes, filling a watering can
Five times quicker than from a tap – no longer do you have to stand and wait! Each tier has two detachable planters with integrated wicks delivering water to the root of the plants and encouraging growth. A large planter with capillary matting also sits on the roof of the top tier. These look fantastic with trailing flowers, but can also be used to grow herbs or leafy salads for easy picking close to the house. If you could ask a plant what it wanted to drink, it would say “Pure rainwater, please”! So capturing, storing and using rainwater is something we should all try to do for the
benefit of our gardens, and to preserve a resource that is too often taken for granted, plus it also helps save money. Rainwater Terrace® comes in both 200 and 134 litre sizes and in a range of colours including black, green/black and terracotta.
