Setup, Compatibility & Care
To prepare your Milan planter, determine if you are using it indoors or outdoors. For indoor use, the planter acts as a standalone decorative piece; consider placing a saucer underneath if you plan to water live plants to protect your flooring. For outdoor use, if you decide to drill drainage holes, do so slowly on a stable surface to prevent cracking the plastic. To maintain the sandstone finish, wash the pot periodically with mild soapy water and a soft cloth; avoid using abrasive scrubbers that may damage the delicate ruffled texture. In winter, the lightweight nature of the pot makes it easy to move into a garage or shed if you wish to protect sensitive plants from extreme frost.
