The Weekender is a 16-inch hanging basket with a built-in self-watering system. A wicking system pulls moisture from a 1-gallon reservoir into the soil, so plants typically need water every 2 to 4 days instead of daily. An overflow feature guards against overwatering, and a removable plug lets you drain the reservoir and use it as a standard hanging basket. It suits busy gardeners and anyone away for short trips, and its reservoir sets it apart from plain hanging baskets that dry out fast.

The Weekender hanging planter is a self-watering hanging basket. A wicking system draws water from a 1-gallon reservoir into the soil as plants need it. Depending on weather and growing conditions, it can typically be watered every 2–4 days instead of daily.
An overflow feature helps keep excess water from collecting. A removable plug lets you drain the reservoir so the planter works like a traditional hanging basket. The liner is removable, and a three-strand rotating hanger is included.
A filled planter may weigh approximately 30–40 pounds with soil, water and plants. Hang it from a structure that can safely support the load, such as a sturdy 4x4 post with a heavy-duty bracket, or a heavy-duty eyelet secured into a solid joist or beam.
