Phillips Collection Elonga Planter

Yes, the planter is crafted from durable aluminum, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor environments. However, if you live in an area with harsh winters or freezing temperatures, we recommend bringing it inside or covering it to protect the polished finish from potential weather damage.

The Elonga Planter does not come with pre-drilled drainage holes. If you plan to plant directly into the pot, you may want to drill holes in the base or use a liner to manage water levels and prevent root rot.

The planter itself weighs 17.6 lbs. Keep in mind that once you add soil and a plant, the total weight will increase significantly, so it is best to place it in its final location before filling it.

Aluminum is naturally resistant to rust, making it an excellent choice for longevity. While the polished finish is durable, it may develop a slight patina or dull over time if exposed to the elements, which can be easily buffed or cleaned to restore its original luster.

At 17.6 lbs, the planter has a solid base, but it is relatively lightweight compared to stone or concrete options. If you are placing it in a high-wind area, consider adding a layer of gravel or heavy stones at the bottom to provide extra stability.
