===Underdrain===
Stormwater planters differ fundamentally from [[bioretention]] in that the storage function is provided only by the [[water retention capacity]] of the [[filter media]]. As such there is no storage reservoir and the only purpose to the aggregate layer is to drain water to the [[perforated pipe]]. For this, a medium aggregate as described in [[choker layer]] is recommended as it negates the need for a separating layer to the filter media.
