Know before you buy
Because of its significant weight, ensure your surface is level and structurally sound to support 375 pounds plus the weight of soil and water. We recommend placing it on a solid foundation like concrete, stone, or reinforced decking rather than soft ground to prevent sinking or tilting over time.
The hand-applied stain is specifically designed to weather and evolve over time. You can expect the finish to develop a unique patina as it is exposed to the elements, which adds to the planter's authentic, aged aesthetic.
Yes, the high-density cast stone concrete is durable and weather-resistant. However, to prevent potential cracking from freeze-thaw cycles, ensure the drainage hole remains clear so water does not collect and freeze inside the vessel.
The planter includes a drainage hole to prevent water from pooling at the roots. A saucer is not included, so if you are using this indoors or on a delicate surface, you may want to place it on a protective mat or tray to catch excess water.
Due to its 375-pound base weight and substantial size, this piece is intended to be a permanent or semi-permanent fixture. We recommend choosing your final location carefully before filling it, as moving it once planted will be extremely difficult.
