Detroit Garden Works Cast Stone Planter

Cast stone is a durable, dense material designed for outdoor use, but like all stone products, it can be susceptible to freeze-thaw cycles if water becomes trapped inside. We recommend elevating the planter with the included pot feet and ensuring the drainage holes remain clear to prevent water accumulation during freezing temperatures.

This piece weighs 125 lbs. Given its substantial weight and dimensions, we strongly recommend having two people available to assist with placement to ensure safety and prevent damage to the planter or your patio surface.

No, you do not need to seal the planter. It is crafted to withstand the elements and will naturally develop a beautiful, weathered patina over time, which is part of the intended aesthetic for this English-style cast stone.

While the planter is heavy enough to remain stable on its own, the included pot feet are essential for proper drainage and airflow. Using them prevents the base from sitting directly on damp surfaces, which helps protect both the planter and the ground beneath it.

While it is designed for outdoor use, it can certainly be used indoors if you have a sturdy surface that can support its 125-lb weight. Just be sure to use a saucer or tray underneath to catch any water drainage, as the planter is porous and designed to drain freely.
