FAQs
Does the planter have drainage holes?
This model is designed as a standalone planter; check the base for pre-drilled holes, or carefully drill one if required for your specific plant type.
Can I leave this planter outside all year?

What is the weight of the planter when empty?
The planter is engineered to be lightweight for easy maneuvering, though specific weights can vary slightly by batch.
Is this suitable for indoor use?
Yes, it functions well indoors, provided you use a saucer underneath to protect your flooring from water runoff.
How do I clean the planter?
A damp cloth and mild soapy water are sufficient to remove dust and dirt from the exterior surface.
Troubleshooting
Planter feels unstable on uneven ground

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your planter, ensure it is placed on a flat, level surface to prevent uneven weight distribution. If you are using the planter on a wooden deck or patio, consider adding a protective mat underneath to prevent moisture rings. For maintenance, simply wipe the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap to keep the finish looking new. During winter months in freezing climates, it is recommended to empty the planter and store it in a sheltered area to extend its lifespan.
