Know before you buy
Because these are crafted from cast iron, they are heavier than standard plastic or wire baskets. You should ensure your mounting hooks or brackets are securely anchored into a stud or solid beam to safely support the weight of the iron, soil, and plants.
Coco liners are natural fibers that will eventually break down over time due to moisture and sun exposure. While they are durable enough for a full growing season, you may need to replace them every year or two depending on your local climate.
Yes, the cast iron construction is weather-resistant and designed for outdoor use. However, to prevent potential rust or damage to the finish over many years, some gardeners prefer to store them in a shed or garage during harsh winter months.
Yes, the baskets are designed with drainage to prevent water from pooling at the bottom. This helps maintain healthy root systems for your flowers and herbs by allowing excess water to escape.
Each basket features a 17-inch chain. When combined with the 5.125-inch height of the basket itself, the total vertical hanging length is approximately 22 inches from the mounting point to the bottom of the planter.
