How stormwater planters work. Stormwater planters use plants’ and soil’s ability to slow, filter and intercept stormwater, called biorentention, to manage runoff sustainably. They function similarly to rain gardens but are smaller, use layers of soil and stone, and have constructed walls. They can be flush with the ground or built up like a raised bed, depending on the design of your space.
What Is a Rain Garden? Rain gardens are planted areas that are designed to capture and slowly allow rainwater and stormwater runoff to infiltrate the landscape. They use natural processes to slow, filter and soak up stormwater, recharging the groundwater and contributing to the overall water quality of our communities.
