Grey Midi Metropolitan Water Butt Planter 165L Decorative Rainwater Storage

The Grey Midi Metropolitan Water Butt Planter is a stylish and practical rainwater harvesting solution designed to complement modern gardens while helping reduce water consumption. Combining a sleek cylindrical design with an integrated planter bowl, this 2-in-1 water butt and planter allows you to grow flowers, herbs or decorative plants while storing rainwater for sustainable garden watering.

With a generous 165-litre rainwater storage capacity, this water butt collects rainwater from your roof guttering system via a standard downpipe diverter. The stored rainwater can then be reused for watering plants, flower beds or vegetable gardens, helping you reduce reliance on mains water and support eco-friendly gardening practices.

The integrated planter bowl provides space for seasonal flowers or herbs, transforming a functional water storage tank into a decorative garden feature. Its slim, modern profile makes it ideal for patios, balconies, courtyards and compact gardens, where space is limited but style is still important.

Manufactured in the UK from durable Medium Density Polyethylene (MDPE), the tank is rotationally moulded for strength and long-term outdoor performance. The opaque material helps reduce algae growth by limiting sunlight entering the water reservoir, ensuring cleaner stored water.

The planter also includes two ½" BSP threaded outlets moulded into the tank. A raised front outlet is positioned perfectly for attaching a tap and filling watering cans, while the lower outlet at the rear allows the tank to be drained fully or connected to additional water butts to increase overall rainwater storage capacity.
