Metropolis Rectangle 361818 Planter

GFRC stands for Glass Fiber Reinforced Concrete. It is a composite material that provides the durability and aesthetic of traditional concrete but is significantly lighter, making it easier to move and position on your patio or deck.

Yes, this planter is designed with drainage holes to ensure proper water management and prevent root rot, which is essential for healthy plant growth in outdoor containers.

The 15 available patinas are hand-applied and designed to age naturally when exposed to the elements. Over time, you can expect the finish to develop a unique, weathered character that enhances the planter's modern aesthetic.

Because it is constructed from durable GFRC, this planter is built to withstand outdoor conditions. However, to prevent potential cracking from freeze-thaw cycles, we recommend ensuring the planter is elevated slightly off the ground and that drainage remains clear during colder months.

At 80 lbs, this planter is substantial enough to remain stable in most residential outdoor settings. If you are placing it in an area with exceptionally high winds, you may want to add a layer of gravel or heavy stones at the base before filling it with soil to increase the weight.
