FAQs
Can I leave the Amalfi Planter outside during winter?
Yes, the durable construction is designed for outdoor use, but ensure drainage is managed to prevent internal ice expansion.
Is the material lightweight?
The planter is sturdy and solid; while not excessively heavy, it provides enough weight to remain stable outdoors.
Does it come with a plant included?
No, this product is for the planter only. Plants are sold separately.
What is the diameter of the base?
The top opening is 40cm in diameter; the base width is slightly tapered to provide stability.
Can I paint the exterior?
While the finish is durable, you can paint it using a spray paint formulated for plastic or masonry if you wish to change the color.
Is the planter waterproof?
The walls are watertight, making it excellent for indoor use provided you monitor moisture inside.
Troubleshooting
Water pooling inside the planter
Drill drainage holes in the bottom or use an internal saucer to manage water levels.
Visible dust or water marks on the exterior
Wipe with a soft, damp microfiber cloth; do not use abrasive chemicals.
Planter feels unstable on uneven ground
Use a small rubber mat or leveling shims underneath the base to ensure it sits flat.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up your Amalfi Planter is straightforward. If you intend to use this planter outdoors, you may wish to drill drainage holes in the base to prevent waterlogging; always use a drill bit suitable for masonry or plastic to avoid cracking. For indoor use, place a layer of expanded clay pebbles at the bottom to encourage aeration. Clean the exterior periodically using a soft, damp cloth and mild soap to maintain the matte finish. Avoid using abrasive sponges or harsh chemical cleaners, as these can dull the surface over time.
