Terra Planter
Designed by Laurie Wiid van Heerden for Indigenus.
Terra, Latin for earth, is a contemporary take on the mid-century tradition of planters on stands. A softly curved glass reinforced concrete body sits in a substantial base of carved Iroko, lifting the planter off the floor and giving it the presence of a piece of furniture.
Terra stands well on its own, staggered in different heights, loosely clustered, or lined along a wall in true mid-century style. Its raised form makes it especially good indoors alongside other furniture.

Built to last
- Self-watering liner with a water-level gauge. The reservoir can keep plants watered for up to four weeks.
- Glass reinforced concrete, around twenty times stronger than standard concrete yet lighter than a solid planter of the same size.
- Indoors or out: made to handle frost, heat and rain. Fit the plug indoors; remove it outdoors so rainwater tops up the reservoir.
- Soft-touch feet protect floors and carpets.
- Plants can be potted into the liner off-site, then dropped into the planter once it's in place.
The timber is FSC-certified Iroko (African teak), naturally rich in oils and resistant to rot and insects.
