Know before you buy
No, the Doty Elliptical Planter does not feature drainage holes. If you plan to use it in an area exposed to heavy rainfall, you may want to consult with a professional about drilling holes or using a specialized drainage layer at the base.
Due to its significant weight, this planter requires a level, stable, and load-bearing surface such as a concrete patio, stone pavers, or a reinforced deck. We recommend ensuring your chosen site is perfectly flat to distribute the weight evenly and prevent any potential cracking or shifting.
Yes, each planter is treated with two coats of a commercial-grade sealer. This provides a robust barrier against moisture and environmental wear, ensuring the textured sandblast finish remains durable throughout the seasons.
Because it weighs 700 pounds, this planter is designed for permanent placement. It is not intended to be moved frequently, so we recommend carefully selecting your final location before installation.
The 48-inch length and 24-inch depth provide ample room for deep-rooted shrubs, ornamental grasses, or a mix of seasonal flowers. Its substantial size makes it an excellent choice for creating a focal point with larger specimen plants.
