FAQs
Can I leave this planter outside all year round?
While the material is weather-resistant, we recommend bringing it indoors or storing it in a shed during freezing winter temperatures to prevent frost damage.
Does the bowl have drainage holes?
The bowl arrives as a solid vessel; you can drill holes if necessary for your specific plant requirements.
Can I use this for a water garden?
Yes, but you must use a suitable waterproof liner inside the bowl as the material is not naturally watertight.
Is the beige finish matte or glossy?
The finish is a natural-style beige designed to look organic and matte, blending seamlessly with outdoor garden aesthetics.
What is the best way to clean the bowl?
Simply use water and a soft cloth. Avoid abrasive scrubbers that could scratch the surface finish.
Troubleshooting
Bowl looks dull or dirty
Wipe the surface with a soft, damp cloth using mild soap and water to restore the finish.
Water leaking through the bottom
The bowl is not designed to be a sealed vessel for water; install a waterproof liner if using as a water feature.
Visible white spots on the exterior
These are likely mineral deposits from water; clean gently with a vinegar and water solution to dissolve the build-up.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To prepare your Hortus Classic Corsica Bowl for planting, ensure the surface is clean and level. If using outdoors, you may consider drilling drainage holes if the environment requires high water runoff, or use a layer of gravel at the base for improved drainage. For care, simply wipe down the exterior with a damp cloth periodically to remove dust or garden debris. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners that may damage the beige finish. During extreme winter conditions, it is recommended to move the bowl to a covered location to prevent potential cracking due to frost expansion.
