As explained in the new guide, self-watering planters use a sub-irrigation system to deliver stored water directly to the roots of the plant. This means that plants receive a steady moisture supply, removing the need for daily watering.

The benefits of this system for senior gardeners are numerous, explains Better Living Magazine. "Gardening should be a source of relaxation, not stress," says the guide. "With self-watering planters, the guesswork of when and how much to water is taken out of the equation. This is especially helpful for seniors who want to enjoy gardening without the constant upkeep."

Another benefit of self-watering planters for senior gardeners is their adaptability. Individuals can choose planters to suit their mobility level with easy-to-read water level indicators and accessible refill points - with a range of heights and designs available. With this in mind, the guide moves on to advise on garden design, encouraging readers to consider the height and placement of planters for easy accessibility.

Alongside tips for designing a comfortable garden space, readers can find information on what to look for when purchasing user-friendly self-watering planters. Gardeners are advised to look for planters with durable stands, easy-to-read water level indicators and simple mechanisms to make the refill process as easy as possible.

As well as its popular senior garden care series, Better Living Magazine offers a range of articles on space-saving 'vertical' gardens. One such article provides tips on repurposing recycled materials, such as plastic bottles and wooden planters, to create "a thriving vertical garden".
