Know before you buy
While the planter is crafted from a lightweight blend of fiberglass, cement, and sand, it has enough substance to remain stable in most settings. However, if you live in a high-wind area, you may want to add a layer of gravel at the bottom to increase its weight.
Yes, the planter includes a removable rubber plug for the drainage hole, which allows you to seal it for indoor use. We recommend placing a saucer or a protective mat underneath to prevent any moisture or condensation from damaging your floors.
Yes. Because of the cement and sand composition, the planter should be protected from freezing temperatures. We recommend moving it to a garage, shed, or indoors during the winter to prevent the material from cracking.
The planter measures 20 inches in diameter at its widest point. Keep in mind that the opening tapers slightly due to the sculptural round design, so you should account for a slightly smaller diameter when selecting your plant.
The planter comes pre-drilled with a drainage hole. It also includes a removable rubber plug, giving you the flexibility to use it with or without drainage depending on your specific plant's needs.
