Standing tall and proud to show off its rich patina finish, the Veradek Corten Steel Pedestal Planter adds character to front porches and patios alike. Its thick gauge corten steel construction ensures that rust only occurs on the surface leaving the integrity of the planter intact for years of use. In addition, all corten steel series planters are equipped with styrofoam insulation to help keep plants healthy in both hot and cold extremes. Veradek corten series planters are proudly designed in Canada so you can be confident that your planter will hold up against weather related cracking and splitting. With the ideal balance of design, structure and purpose, the Corten Steel Pedestal Planter will make a tall yet elegant statement in any outdoor space, any season. During the initial rusting phase, rust may drip from the surface of the planter. Veradek recommends placing an appropriate protective barrier between the planter and ground to ensure no stains are left behind. Material: Metal.
