Can this planter be used outdoors?

Troubleshooting

Water is pooling in the saucer

Empty the excess water from the saucer regularly after watering the plant to prevent over-saturation of the roots and potential water damage to surfaces.

Planter appears to be rusting

Gently clean the rusted area with a soft cloth and mild soap, then dry thoroughly. Consider applying a clear sealant specifically designed for metal if rust is a recurring issue, and avoid leaving it in damp conditions for extended periods.

Plant seems too large for the planter

Consider repotting the plant into a smaller size or choosing a more compact plant. Alternatively, you can use the planter as a decorative cachepot for a smaller nursery pot.
