Product Details

A long, straight-sided rectangular planter built for a continuous architectural line, not a single point of color.

Hand-laid commercial-grade fiberglass, finished to order in our US finishing centers with our engineered six-stage finishing process, using professional 2K polyurethane, ASTM-rated for 1,000-hour salt spray and exterior UV durability.

  • Five lengths, 24" to 72", all with a fixed 16"×24"H cross-section. Specified across hospitality, restaurants, corporate, and rooftop projects.
  • Twenty standard colors in Low Gloss or High Gloss, plus custom Pantone or RAL match with physical spray-out approval before production.
  • Ships in about a week off-peak. Plan two weeks during peak season (May through July). Custom color adds about a week for spray-out approval.
  • No order minimum. Trade pricing available. 3-year limited warranty.
  • Nationwide FedEx Freight Direct. COI and blind ship available. Project team confirms color, size, lead time, and freight in writing before you commit.

Best for

  • Hotel lobbies, restaurant entries, and member-club interiors that need a long horizontal line or a planted divider
  • Office reception, corporate floor zones, and large open-plan spaces where Tolgas frame circulation paths
  • Rooftop terraces, balconies, and coastal patios. Commercial-grade fiberglass holds up to UV, salt, and freeze-thaw
  • Green walls and continuous planted boundaries: matching cross-section means a row reads as one continuous line
  • Interior designers and architects specifying a Pantone or RAL color across a project

A planted boundary, not a single planter.

The Tolga's matching 16"×24" cross-section means a row of three 60s or four 48s reads as one continuous planted wall, not four planters in a line. Specified by hospitality designers for restaurant patio frontage, hotel arrival edges, and corporate plaza thresholds where the planter has to disappear into the architecture.

  • Specified by hospitality groups, restaurant chains, interior design firms, and commercial developments across the US. The rectangular workhorse in regular rotation for dividers, boundaries, and patio edges.
  • Hand-laid commercial-grade fiberglass. UV-stable and frost-resistant. Holding up in desert sun, coastal salt air, and freeze-thaw climates for decades, not seasons.
  • Five lengths to mix and match with a single fixed cross-section, so two or six planters in a row form a continuous visual rail rather than five separate boxes.
  • Custom color match available to any Pantone or RAL code. $100 per-color fee covers the matching process plus all spray-out approvals, in either Low Gloss or High Gloss, your choice.
  • Optional pre-drilled drainage holes at no extra cost. Pick "no drainage" for indoor use or "pre-drilled" for outdoor.
  • Standard nursery grow pot fit: the straight-sided interior accommodates a row of 12" nursery grow pots, useful for swap-in seasonal planting and commercial maintenance rotations. See the size table below.
  • Specification documentation: spec sheet PDF with dimensions, weights, planting openings, capacity, and finish options for project submittals.

Nationwide flat-rate shipping by tier based on order subtotal. Curbside shipping & handling included on orders over $3,500. Smaller orders ship at a flat-rate freight charge per tier; White Glove placement is available as an upgrade. Full rate schedule is in the Shipping & Delivery tab.

Soil capacity shown is the full interior volume from the factory specification. Plan for ~85 to 90% fill to leave room for a drainage layer at the base and ~1" of clearance below the rim. For the 60", that works out to roughly 13.6 to 14.4 cu ft of soil rather than the full 16.0. Note: potting soil settles 10 to 15% after the first watering. If you plan to top off to the rim after settling, order a small margin extra. Filled weights assume saturated potting soil at ~74.8 lb/cu ft and ~90% fill for conservative load planning; actual weights vary with media density, moisture, and root ball. Grow pot fit shows the nominal 12" nursery-pot count that fits side-by-side along the length, the practical configuration for staged or seasonal planting. Brand variance is typical, so verify the specific container before order if it matters.

Ships in about a week off-peak. Plan two weeks during peak season (May through July). Custom Pantone or RAL color matches add about a week for spray-out approval. Spray-out samples and custom shapes run longer; details are in the Design Guidance tab.

Prices shown are standard retail. (Trade accounts are available) They include any of our 20 standard colors in Low Gloss or High Gloss (40 finish options). Custom color matching is available for a $100 per-color fee that covers the full matching process, including physical spray-out samples for approval before production. The fee covers the color in both gloss levels. Pre-drilled drainage holes are free if you need them.

Materials & Construction

  • Material: hand-laid commercial-grade fiberglass with a reinforced base. The 48" Tolga weighs about 46 lb empty; the 72" weighs about 59 lb. An equivalent concrete or stone trough at the same length would run several hundred pounds heavier and require lift equipment to place, so two people can move and place a Tolga without a forklift through the full size run.
  • Finish system: our engineered six-stage finishing process. We pull pre-manufactured inventory, re-inspect each planter, repair any cosmetic defects, abrade the surface for durable adhesion, apply a professional automotive-grade 2K polyurethane, and cure to shipping hardness before crating. The chemistry is ASTM-rated for 1,000-hour salt spray (ASTM B117), 1,000-hour humidity resistance (ASTM D2247), and exterior UV durability.
  • Color range: 20 standard colors, each available in Low Gloss or High Gloss for 40 total finish options. Custom color matching to any Pantone or RAL code is available for a $100 per-color fee, covering both gloss levels. Works equally well for hotel brand standards, architectural specs, and matching residential trim. For brand colors held in other systems, convert to the nearest Pantone or RAL equivalent for the most accurate result.
  • Construction: seamless one-piece body. No corner joints to fail, crack, or leak.
  • Origin: a Jay Scotts silhouette, US-finished by Pots Planters & More. We stock the base inventory in our facilities and finish each order to your color specification.
  • Warranty: 3-year limited warranty against material and finish defects. Full warranty terms.

Long Rectangular Planter Box for Boundaries, Dividers, and Patio Edges

The Tolga is a long, straight-sided rectangular indoor or outdoor fiberglass planter built for hotel lobbies, restaurant patio fronts, corporate reception zones, rooftop terraces, and any architectural setting that needs a clean horizontal line. The five lengths run from 24" to 72" with a fixed 16"×24"H cross-section across the entire run. That consistency is the defining detail: line up two 48s, three 60s, or any mixed-length combination and the result reads as a single continuous planted boundary rather than discrete planters in a row. The seamless one-piece commercial-grade fiberglass body weighs a fraction of an equivalent concrete or stone trough at the same length. Designers commonly spec the 36" and 48" for restaurant patio fronts and reception flanking, the 60" for hotel lobby boundaries and corporate floor zones, and the 72" for long uninterrupted patio dividers and continuous green-wall installations.

Project Planning Notes

  • Filled weight (load planning): see the Filled (est.) column in the size table above. Estimates use saturated potting soil at ~74.8 lb/cu ft and ~90% fill for conservative load planning. The 60" lands near 1,130 lb filled and the 72" near 1,345 lb. For rooftop terraces, balconies, elevated patios, and interior office floors, confirm load capacity with your structural engineer or building manager. The 48" and longer Tolga sizes all exceed 900 lb filled and are common points where structural load review is appropriate, particularly when multiple planters are arranged in a continuous row that concentrates load along a single line.
  • Continuous-boundary planning: the fixed 16"×24" cross-section is what lets a row read as a single line. For longest visual continuity, butt planters end-to-end with a consistent gap (3 to 6 inches is typical) and align the centerlines exactly. Mix lengths intentionally: a 72-60-72 row gives a paced rhythm, while 48-48-48-48 reads as a metronomic line. For protected boundaries (entry queue, patio edge), the 16" base width is wide enough to be visually substantive without claiming meaningful floor depth.
  • Wind exposure (60" and 72"): the long profile catches wind on the broad side. In rooftop, coastal, or exposed streetscape installations, the 60" and 72" sizes benefit from added ballast: a layer of gravel or sand at the base, mass at planting, or anchoring per project conditions. The 16" base width gives reasonable stability but does not eliminate the need for ballast on exposed rooftops.
  • Drainage decision: indoor use is typically "no drainage" with a saucer or basin under the root ball. Outdoor use should be "pre-drilled" to prevent freeze damage and root rot. Both options are free; pick at order.
  • Custom color workflow: send us your Pantone or RAL code. We mix the match and produce physical spray-out samples for your approval. Once approved, production begins. Add about a week to standard lead time for the spray-out and approval cycle. A $100 per-color fee applies and covers all spray-outs needed to lock the match. The fee covers both Low Gloss and High Gloss versions of that color. If your brand color lives in another system, convert to the nearest Pantone or RAL equivalent before submitting; cross-system conversions from house-paint references are typically only 80% accurate and add significant time to the approval cycle.
  • Lead time caveats: standard finishes ship in about a week off-peak. Plan two weeks during peak season (May through July). Custom Pantone or RAL color matches add about a week for the spray-out and approval cycle. Fully custom shapes and sizes are built to order on a project timeline we confirm with you at order. Bulk project orders (25+ units) ship on a confirmed schedule we set at order. We confirm exact dates in writing before you commit.
  • Multi-unit finish consistency: for runs of 4+ units, request finish-consistency confirmation before production. Single-batch production keeps color, sheen, and texture matched across the order. This matters more on a continuous-boundary install than on standalone placements, where a slight batch variance might never be visible.

For Designers & Project Teams

The Tolga is in regular rotation for hospitality, restaurant, office, and rooftop projects across the country. Because we finish every order in our US facilities, lead times stay short and color flexibility stays open.

  • US-stocked, finished to your color order. About a week off-peak for any standard finish; plan two weeks during peak season (May through July). Add about a week for a custom Pantone or RAL color match.
  • Color matching for branded environments. Match a hotel brand standard, restaurant interior palette, or architectural specification using any Pantone or RAL code. A $100 per-color fee covers the match and spray-out approvals.
  • Trade pricing for designers, architects, landscape professionals, and hospitality procurement teams across our full collection. Apply for a trade account.
  • Specification documentation: Tolga spec sheet PDF with dimensions, weights, planting openings, capacity, and finish options for project submittals.
  • Freight delivery options: FedEx Freight Direct curbside (with liftgate and appointment) on $500+ orders, White Glove placement available, and orders over $3,500 include curbside shipping & handling at no additional cost. Full rate schedule is in the Shipping & Delivery tab.
  • Returns: 30-day returns on standard finishes. No returns on custom-color, textured finishes or custom-size orders. We confirm this in writing at time of quote so there are no surprises at delivery.
  • Dedicated support: a project team from initial quote through delivery, not a contact form queue.

Trade Buyers Usually Ask

What sizes does the Tolga long rectangular planter come in?

Five lengths: 24", 36", 48", 60", and 72". All share the same fixed 16"×24"H cross-section, so a row of any combination reads as a continuous line. See the Sizes & Pricing table above for full outer dimensions, planting opening, soil capacity, grow-pot row count, empty weight, filled-weight estimate, and price by SKU.

Can the Tolga be used as a patio divider or office room divider?

Yes. The Tolga's 24"-tall body and 16"-wide base make it a practical visual divider for patio edges, restaurant queue zones, hotel arrival paths, and open-plan office circulation. For taller plant material, expect total height of the planter plus plant to deliver the visual barrier; many designers plant with upright grasses, dwarf hedge material, or formal topiary to reach 5 to 6 feet of total height on the 60" or 72" sizes. For longer continuous dividers, align centerlines and butt planters end-to-end with a consistent 3 to 6 inch gap.

How much soil does each Tolga size hold?

Soil capacity runs from ~6.3 cu ft (188 qt) on the 24" up to 19.1 cu ft (572 qt) on the 72". Numbers are the full interior volume from the factory specification. Plan for ~85 to 90% fill to leave room for a drainage layer and ~1" below the rim. Potting soil settles 10 to 15% after the first watering, so add a small margin if you plan to top off to the rim after settling.

How many standard nursery grow pots fit inside each Tolga size?

The 13.4" inner width fits a row of 12" nominal nursery grow pots. The 24" holds 2, the 36" holds 3, the 48" holds 4, the 60" holds 5, and the 72" holds 6. Brand variance is typical; verify the specific container before ordering if it matters. For seasonal swap-in planting, the grow-pot approach lets you replace bloom material without disturbing the soil mass; the planter itself stays planted with permanent material and the rotation happens inside the row of grow pots.

Can Tolgas be lined up to form a continuous green boundary?

Yes. The fixed 16"×24" cross-section across all five lengths is specifically what makes this work. Two 48s placed end-to-end with a 3 to 6 inch gap read as one continuous 8-foot-plus planted line, not two separate planters. The same applies to mixed-length rows: a 72-60-72 or 60-72-60 arrangement reads as a single paced boundary because the cross-section is identical. For longest installations, single-batch production matters; request finish-consistency confirmation before production on runs of 4+ units.

Can you match a brand or architectural color?

Yes. We match any Pantone or RAL code. These are the industry-standard reference systems for accurate, repeatable color matching on fiberglass. The workflow includes physical spray-out samples for your approval before production starts. A $100 per-color fee applies and covers the matching process, all spray-outs needed to confirm the match, and your choice of Low Gloss or High Gloss for that color. If your brand color lives in another system, convert to the nearest Pantone or RAL equivalent before submitting. For multi-unit orders (4+ units), single-batch production locks finish consistency across the run.

Can the Tolga be used outdoors year-round?

Yes. The Tolga is built from commercial-grade fiberglass and finished through our engineered six-stage process with professional 2K polyurethane. The finish is ASTM-rated for 1,000-hour salt spray (ASTM B117) and 1,000-hour humidity resistance (ASTM D2247). Tolga planters are installed across desert, coastal, and freeze-thaw climates and are backed by our 3-year limited warranty. For outdoor use, choose the pre-drilled drainage option to prevent water from pooling and freezing in the base. In exposed rooftop or coastal positions, the 60" and 72" benefit from added ballast at the base for wind resistance.

Do you offer trade or volume pricing?

Trade pricing is available to designers, architects, landscape professionals, hospitality procurement teams, and other commercial buyers. There is no order minimum and no volume tier. All approved trade accounts receive the same trade rate across the full collection. Apply for a trade account. We typically respond within one business day.

What are typical freight options for commercial projects?

FedEx Freight Direct curbside (with liftgate and appointment) is included on orders of $500+. Orders over $3,500 include curbside shipping & handling at no additional cost. White Glove placement, blind ship, and Certificate of Insurance (COI) requests are available. For job-site delivery, multi-unit buildings, or coordinated install dates, contact our team to align lead times with your project schedule.

What documentation do you provide for project submittals?

The Tolga spec sheet covers dimensions, planting openings, capacity, weights, and finish options for the full size run. For RFP and submittal packages, contact us with your project specifics.

Are returns allowed on custom-color orders?

30-day returns on standard finishes. No returns on custom-color, textured finishes or custom-size orders. We confirm return eligibility in writing at time of quote so there are no surprises at delivery.

How quickly can you ship for a project deadline?

Standard finishes ship in about a week off-peak from our US finishing centers. Plan two weeks during peak season (May through July). Custom Pantone or RAL color matches add about a week for the spray-out and approval cycle. Fully custom shapes and sizes are built to order on a project timeline we confirm with you at order. Bulk project orders (25+ units) ship on a confirmed schedule we set at order. Transit time is typically 3 to 7 business days via FedEx Freight Direct curbside (liftgate and appointment included on $500+ orders; included curbside shipping and handling on orders over $3,500).

Colors may render differently on screen than in person. For final color decisions, request a physical sample. Recommended for commercial multi-unit orders.

    What to expect with FedEx Freight Direct

    Your large planter ships on a pallet via FedEx Freight Direct, a noticeable step up from generic LTL freight:

    • 2-hour delivery windows — morning or evening, your choice
    • Text and email notifications when your shipment is scheduled, the day of delivery, and 30 minutes before the truck arrives
    • Curbside Delivery — Curbside, with a liftgate, along with an appointment (included on every retail order)
    • Real-time tracking via fedex.com or the FedEx app
    • Signature required at delivery — please have someone 18+ available

    Want White Glove Delivery? Add it to your order at checkout for two-person delivery, placement in the room of your choice, and optional packaging removal. Available on orders $500+ in approximately 90% of the US — we'll confirm availability for your zip code.

    Living in a condo, apartment, or high-rise? White Glove Delivery requires an available elevator (preferably a freight or service elevator) at the time of delivery. The FedEx team cannot carry planters up stairs. If your building requires elevator reservations, certificates of insurance, or specific delivery hours, please arrange these in advance. If elevator access is unavailable when FedEx arrives, the planter may be delivered to the building lobby or rescheduled at additional cost.

    Inspect before signing. Open the pallet and check each planter at delivery. Note any visible damage on the FedEx delivery receipt before signing — this is the cleanest path to a fast resolution.

    Smaller items — FedEx Ground

    Some smaller planters and accessories under 150 lbs ship via FedEx Ground (commercial addresses) or FedEx Home Delivery (residential, including weekends). Standard FedEx tracking, no appointment required, no signature unless you request one. Typical transit: 1–5 business days. Your shipping confirmation email will indicate which carrier is handling your order.

    If something arrives damaged

    Fiberglass is durable, but freight happens. If you see damage at delivery:

    1. Note it on the FedEx delivery receipt before signing — the driver will wait while you inspect.
    2. Photograph the damage — pallet, packaging, and planter.
    3. Email sales@potsplantersandmore.com within 48 hours with photos and your order number.

    We'll repair, replace, or credit at our discretion under our 3-year warranty. Concealed damage discovered after unpacking must be reported within 5 business days of delivery.

    High-rise, condo, and apartment delivery

    We deliver to multi-unit buildings every day, but a few things need to be in place for delivery to succeed:

    • Reserve your building's freight or service elevator for your delivery window. Most buildings require 24–72 hours' notice and may restrict deliveries to weekday business hours.
    • Confirm the elevator can fit the planter — box is approximately 2" bigger than the planter dimensions. Measure your elevator and unit doorway before ordering.
    • Certificate of Insurance (COI) — many buildings require one before any vendor enters. We can request a COI from FedEx — email sales@potsplantersandmore.com at least 5 business days before delivery.
    • If the elevator isn't available when FedEx arrives, the planter may be delivered to the lobby or rescheduled at additional cost.

    Not sure whether your building can accommodate White Glove Delivery? Contact us before ordering — we'll help you choose the right service level.

    Trade & job-site delivery

    For landscape architects, designers, and commercial buyers:

    • Job-site delivery — provide site contact, hours, and any access restrictions at order
    • Coordinated delivery — we'll schedule finishing your planters to coordinate with your install dates
    • Blind ship — no PPM branding on pallet or packing slip for trade clients managing end-customer relationships
    • Certificate of Insurance (COI) — available on request for sites that require one
    • Inside delivery, white-glove, or installation coordination — available on request, quoted per project

    Request a trade freight quote →

    Outside the continental US (AK, HI, Canada, international)

We work with freight forwarders for these regions — email sales@potsplantersandmore.com with your destination and we'll arrange a quote. FedEx Freight Direct also covers Canada, so cross-border quotes are usually quick.

Design Guidance

The Tolga reads as a planted horizontal rail rather than a single object. In single placements it grounds an entry or anchors a corner. In rows of two or more it becomes a boundary, a divider, or a continuous green wall. What follows is a guide to placement, sizing, finish selection, and planting.

Where the Tolga works

Indoor

  • Hotel lobbies, restaurant entries, and member-club interiors that need a horizontal divider or a planted rail.
  • Office reception, executive floor zones, and open-plan workspaces framing circulation paths.
  • Conference centers, event venues, and large-format retail using planters as soft partitions.
  • Loft, gallery, and showroom spaces where the long line reads as architectural intent.

Outdoor

  • Restaurant patio frontage, sidewalk-seating boundaries, and queue-defining edges.
  • Hotel arrival lanes, porte-cochere edges, and resort entry plantings.
  • Rooftop terraces, balconies, and elevated patios (confirm load on 48"+ sizes).
  • Corporate campus thresholds, courtyard borders, and entry-plaza paving edges.

Choosing the right size

Setting Recommended size(s) Why it works
Reception desk flanking or short residential edge 24" or 36" Substantive enough to register, short enough to flank without dominating.
Restaurant patio segment or short divider run 36" or 48" The workhorse pair for restaurant fronts and short queue dividers.
Hotel lobby boundary or office zone partition 48" or 60" Long enough to define a zone; manageable as a single planter to move.
Continuous boundary, queue line, or green wall base 60" or 72" (in rows) Two or more end-to-end read as one architectural line rather than separate planters.
Rooftop or major-entry statement boundary 72" (often paired) Longest single-piece option. Confirm rooftop load on 72": ~1,345 lb filled.
Mixed-rhythm row (paced visual line) 72-60-72 or 48-60-48 Length variation creates rhythm; matching cross-section keeps the line continuous.

Grow pot fit (standard nursery containers in a row)

For seasonal swap-in planting or staged installations with pre-grown material, the Tolga's straight-sided interior accommodates a row of standard 12" nominal nursery grow pots. The straight walls mean the count is the same at the top and base, so any pot that fits the opening will seat at the bottom:

  • 24" (21.4"×13.4" opening): 2× 12" nursery grow pots in a row.
  • 36" (33.4"×13.4" opening): 3× 12" nursery grow pots in a row.
  • 48" (45.4"×13.4" opening): 4× 12" nursery grow pots in a row.
  • 60" (57.4"×13.4" opening): 5× 12" nursery grow pots in a row.
  • 72" (69.4"×13.4" opening): 6× 12" nursery grow pots in a row.

Container dimensions vary by grower. If you're matching to a specific source, measure outside diameter before ordering. For mixed plantings (upright structural in front, trailing or filler behind), a single mid-size grow pot can substitute for two 12s.

Finish & color strategy

  • Low Gloss: reads as a soft satin, hides surface texture, sits quietly in residential and hospitality interiors.
  • High Gloss: reflective and architectural, pops against modern facades and stone, ideal for branded retail and hospitality.
  • Custom color match: Pantone or RAL only. Brand standards in Benjamin Moore or Sherwin-Williams are converted to the closest Pantone or RAL on our end (direct paint-brand matching tops out around 80% accuracy).
  • Multi-unit consistency: for runs of 4+ units, request a finish-consistency confirmation before production. Single-batch production keeps color, sheen, and texture matched across the order. On continuous-boundary installs the visible seam is the gap between planters; a slight batch variance reads more in a row than on standalone placements.

Mixing finishes is a deliberate move that reads as designed. A matte black row beside a high-gloss white accent piece, for example, only works as intent if the contrast is clean.

Planting & specifying

  • Drainage: pick "pre-drilled" for outdoor; pick "no drainage" indoors and use a saucer or liner.
  • Soil & weight: filled weights run from ~450 lb on the 24" to ~1,345 lb on the 72" (saturated potting soil at ~74.8 lb/cu ft, ~90% fill for conservative load planning). The 48", 60", and 72" sizes are the planning points to confirm rooftop, deck, or balcony load capacity before delivery. For continuous-boundary installs, multiple planters concentrate load along a single line, which can matter more than a standalone placement of the same individual planter.
  • Soil settling: potting soil typically settles 10 to 15% after first watering. Soil capacity in the table above is the full interior volume. Plan for ~85 to 90% fill at planting (to leave a drainage layer and rim clearance), and order a small margin extra if you want to top off after settling.
  • Plant pairings: the long horizontal rail flatters formal hedge material, upright grasses, and structured topiary. Boxwood, pittosporum, or Japanese holly read as architectural at any length. For mixed plantings, set upright structural material at the rear and shorter or trailing material at the front. Outdoors, ornamental grasses paired with a few specimen evergreens deliver year-round structure on rooftops and patios.
  • Lighting: grazing light along the broad face emphasizes the long line at night. Uplighting from the base reads the silhouette. Downlight from above reads into the planting.

Frequently Asked Questions

The Tolga is available in five lengths (L × W × H), all 16" wide and 24" tall: 24" × 16" × 24", 36" × 16" × 24", 48" × 16" × 24", 60" × 16" × 24", and 72" × 16" × 24". Planting openings include 33.25" × 13.25" for the 36", 45.25" × 13.25" for the 48", and 57.25" × 13.25" for the 60".

The 36" weighs 33.1 lbs, the 48" weighs 39.7 lbs, and the 60" weighs 47.4 lbs unplanted. Those weights are manageable for lobby and atrium installations and within the load tolerance of most commercial rooftop or elevated deck environments.

The Tolga's wide 16" depth and long rectangular form work well in large, open environments: hotel lobbies, restaurant patios, office atriums, and wide corridors. Its clean, low-profile silhouette fits contemporary architectural interiors and landscaping schemes without competing with the surrounding space.

The 16" width supports medium to large root systems. Low ornamental grasses, lavender, boxwood hedges, and compact flowering shrubs are good fits for the 24" height. For grouped lobby or atrium displays, mix several Tolga units at different lengths and plant with trailing or mounding species to add depth along the floor plane.

Yes. All planters are crafted from commercial-grade fiberglass and finished with automotive-grade paint that resists UV fading, freeze-thaw cycles, wind, and rain. When the drainage holes are open or properly plugged before freezing temperatures, the planter will not crack or warp over winter. No sealers or coatings are needed.

You choose at checkout. Select "Yes Drainage Holes" for outdoor use, holes are pre-drilled and ready to plant. Select "No Drainage Holes" for indoor installations, and use a removable liner or saucer to protect floors. Drainage holes cannot be added after purchase, so choose carefully.
