Healthier Plants

Better Than Rocks is the simple and ultimate drainage solution that promotes lush, long-lasting container gardens. Layer it in the bottom of your planters, window boxes and indoor or outdoor pots for optimal drainage and watch your plants flourish. Say goodbye to rocks, aluminum cans, packing peanuts and broken clay pot shards! Those methods don’t work half as well as Better Than Rocks.

Lighter Pots, Better Drainage

Filling the bottom of the pot with rocks, crushed aluminum cans, packing peanuts or clay pot shards doesn’t really work. Soil falls through the cracks when watering, which fills the air space clogging the drain holes and prevents roots from breathing and water from draining. And when it’s time to empty the pot, you have a big mess. Better Than Rocks solves this problem – and it’s simple, easy, affordable.

Ready for lighter planters, better drainage and superior plant health for indoor and outdoor containers of all shapes and sizes? Better Than Rocks provides the following benefits:

  • Easy to use
  • Keeps soil in, lets excess water out
  • Saves money, less soil required
  • Fits containers of any size or shape
  • Eco-friendly – made with recycled plastic
  • Reusable year after year

Your Better Than Rocks really worked great last year. I was able to move those big pots around by myself and my flowers really grew!!

Just want to say that I have been using Better Than Rocks for two years and it works great! Drainage is so important and as the name says, Better Than Rocks it certainly is. Love it especially in my large decorator pots. I can’t wait till spring.

Touted as The Container Drainer, Better Than Rocks is a lightweight recycled (and reusable) mesh that is effective in keeping soil and roots from becoming water logged, and keeps the soil from washing away through drainable holes. Take it from me, this container is a whole lot lighter than one with rocks!
