Thanks so much for getting back to me!I just checked and they say your planter is around 1,5 cubic feet in volume, so 40 liters. Someone said 25 quarts, which is actually less than that, 30 liters or so. But I will go with the higher volume just in case.

Yellowing fig plant - am I over or under watering?
Looks like Ficus carica , never seen one grown as a house plant before.They tend to be deciduous when growing outdoors, I'm really surprised it has leaves at this time of the year.

Why not contact your local garden centers, lots of them will deliver and you usually have a decent selection of well known brands to choose from.
