Featuring a sleek brushed metallic finish, this compact bowl serves as a sophisticated vessel for houseplants, herbs, or small shrubs, perfect for placing on windowsills, shelves, or conservatories.

FAQs
Is the Greenwich Brushed Planter waterproof?
No, the planter is not guaranteed to be watertight. We strongly recommend using a liner or floral foam to protect your furniture.
What type of plants work best in this bowl?
This planter is ideal for herbs, small succulents, and small decorative shrubs.
Can I leave this planter outside?
While it can be used on porches, it is designed primarily as an indoor accessory and is best suited for conservatories, shelves, and windowsills.
How do I clean the metallic finish?
Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe away dust. Avoid abrasive cleaners or liquids that could damage the brushed texture.
What are the primary materials used?
The planter features a high-quality metal construction with a brushed finish.
Can I plant directly into the container?
It is not recommended due to the lack of a watertight seal. Always use a liner to prevent damage to the planter and the surface it rests on.
Troubleshooting
Water leaking onto furniture surfaces
The planter is not watertight; ensure you are using a plastic liner or appropriate floral foam inside the bowl.
Surface finish losing its shine
Clean the exterior gently with a dry cloth; avoid using water or household chemicals that may cause spotting on the metallic surface.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up your planter is straightforward. First, select a high-quality liner that fits the interior dimensions of the bowl to prevent any potential leaks. If planting directly, ensure you use floral foam or a moisture-barrier bag to keep the metal body dry and free from mineral buildup over time.
Compatibility-wise, this piece is best paired with plants that do not require heavy, moisture-saturated soil, or plants already housed in nursery pots that fit within the bowl. For care, wipe the exterior periodically with a soft, dry microfiber cloth to maintain the luster of the brushed finish. Avoid using abrasive sponges or harsh chemical cleaners, as these can strip the metallic coating.
