Your outdoor planters get abused by weather from both ends - blazing sun in July and sub-zero nights in January. Cheap pots don't survive that cycle without cracking or fading. This 12-inch charcoal floral planter from the Vintage Collection is built from heavy-gauge steel with a powder-coat finish that holds its color and structural integrity through the full range of a Midwest year. The charcoal finish is neutral and contemporary - it works in modern landscape settings, on patios, and at commercial entryways without clashing with plant colors or exterior finishes. The two integrated handles make it practical to move once planted. Pre-drilled drainage prevents standing water. The Vintage Collection design adds a slightly ornamental profile that distinguishes it from standard straight-wall Stocked at Crofton Lumber and Akron Lumber.
