Know before you buy
Yes, weighing in at 80 lbs, this terra cotta planter is substantial and stable, making it a reliable choice for windy patios or exposed garden areas.
You can, but because it features a pre-installed drainage hole, you will need to place a saucer underneath to catch excess water and protect your flooring surfaces.
Yes, the planter is high-fired at extreme temperatures, which makes it durable enough to withstand freezing conditions. However, ensure the drainage hole remains clear to prevent water from pooling and freezing inside, which could cause cracking.
The natural glazing provides a protective layer that enhances the rustic aesthetic while offering superior weathering capabilities. It gives the planter a refined, earthy finish that will age gracefully over time.
The planter includes a centered, 3/4-inch drainage hole, which is sufficient for standard container gardening. If you are planting species that require rapid drainage, you may want to add a layer of gravel or pot shards at the bottom before adding soil.
