Square Finofil Aquatic Plant Basket – 0.5 Litre

    Description

    This 0.5 litre square aquatic basket is suited to smaller plants, divisions, and early-stage potting where you want a compact, stable container. The square profile helps baskets sit neatly side-by-side, making it easier to use limited shelf space efficiently and keep planting layouts organised.

    Fine mesh construction helps retain aquatic compost and reduces wash-out when lowering the basket into the pond.

    Why choose a square basket?
    Square baskets offer two practical advantages:

    • they sit very securely on flat shelves due to their flat sides and base
    • they pack efficiently, allowing you to arrange more plants in a given area without gaps

    This can be particularly helpful when creating a structured planting scheme or when shelf depth limits where baskets can sit.

    Why choose a 0.5 litre basket?
    A smaller basket is useful when the root system is small and extra compost would be unnecessary. Keeping the basket appropriately sized helps prevent loose compost and keeps smaller plants steady until they develop enough roots to justify a larger container.

      Growing Instructions
      • Add aquatic compost to the base. Place the plant or division centrally and firm compost around it.
      • Top with washed gravel to lock everything in place.
      • Lower into the pond slowly to prevent compost movement.
      Care Instructions
      • Handle small baskets gently when saturated, as compost can shift more easily in smaller volumes.
      • Always cap with gravel and lower slowly to reduce disturbance.
      Growers Tips
      • Use this size for neat propagation work and for plants that will be potted on later.
      • When roots begin to circle the basket or growth becomes crowded, step up to a 1 litre or 2 litre basket rather than adding loose compost on top.
      Wildlife Tips
      • Grouped small baskets can be used to create dense planting areas that offer cover for tadpoles and
        aquatic insects, especially on shallow shelves where wildlife activity is highest.
      Ordering, Shipping, Tracking and Returns
      Ordering & delivery


      Some products are ready for immediate dispatch, while others are sold for a later delivery period so that they can reach you in good condition and at the right point in the growing season.

      The expected delivery period for the product or variant you choose will be shown below the Add to basket button and again in the basket and checkout.

      30 litre plants and some larger items are sent by specialist pallet delivery rather than standard parcel.

      If your order contains products with different delivery timings, it may be split into more than one shipment. Plants or products that are ready for immediate dispatch will normally be sent first, while later-season plants will be sent when they are ready. This helps us send live plants at the appropriate point in the season and in suitable condition to travel.

      For full details, please see our Shipping Policy.

      Returns & problems on arrival

      Because we sell live aquatic plants and molluscs, some parts of our policy work differently from standard retail.

      Live plants and molluscs are perishable and are not suitable for routine returns once they have been prepared for dispatch.

      If there is a genuine issue on arrival, please contact us within 24 hours using the form on our Contact page, with your order number, photographs, and a short explanation.

      We will always review genuine issues carefully and fairly. Depending on the circumstances, the appropriate remedy may include a replacement, refund, or partial refund where appropriate.

      Please do not send anything back unless we have agreed this with you in writing first.

      For full details, please see our Refunds & Returns Policy.
