Size and setup
Built as a planter first. Lit from the inside after dark.
The solar module sits inside the planter, while drainage and live-plant use stay straightforward. The glow is decorative ambient light through the cutouts, not an exposed flame or pathway light.
Opening
Approx. 16.5 in planting opening
Body
18 in W x 18 in D x 20 in H
Setup
Drainage holes, live planting, internal solar LED
Solar module, planting area, and weathered steel finish shown together.
Lighting system
Solar powered, with realistic expectations.
Integrated solar LED module with rechargeable battery and on/off control. Light is decorative ambient accent lighting, not pathway or security lighting. Solar performance depends on direct sun and season. On a full sunny charge, expect a warm accent glow for roughly 6-8 hours after dark.
What matters
Steel body. Solar glow. No outlet needed.
Solar
Charges by day and turns on after dark without cords, trenching, or outlets.
Handmade
Built for places people care about: porches, cabins, lake homes, and patios.
How it works
Set it outside. Let the sun handle the rest.
Use EmberRoot like a normal outdoor planter. During the day the solar light charges; after dark, the cutouts throw a warm accent glow across the porch.
1. Place it
Use it by an entry, patio, porch, garden path, cabin, or lake-home deck.
2. Plant it
Add real flowers, greenery, herbs, or a seasonal arrangement.
3. Charge it
The solar light charges during daylight without cords or trenching.
4. Let it glow
After sunset, it turns into warm accent light, not a harsh floodlight.
The feeling
You buy it for the planter. You keep it for the evenings.
The flowers bring color during the day. After sunset, the warm cutout glow gives the porch a reason to stay open a little longer.
Front entry
Use a pair to make the approach feel intentional after dark.
Patio
Add low, warm light where people sit, talk, and stay longer.
Cabin
Give decks, docks, and paths a piece that belongs to the place.
