Southern Patio 18" Grecian Urn, Stone

Very nice and light

Needed another urn to hold a fern. This is perfect! Not fancy. It is plastic but is sturdy. Comes in two pieces. Just snap the base onto the urn. It is not tall--only about 24" assembled. I already had several of these and put them out every year with plants/flowers.

I always choose these planters because they are not oversize like many others so a ton of potting soil is not needed. The only flaw in this product is that there are no drainage holes on the bottom. I found out the hard way after my plants began to slowly rot after the pots slowly filled with rain water. By the time I realized that something was wrong, it was too late and I had to replace them (after drilling a hole in the bottom of the planter first)!

Base deformed after a couple of weeks of use. Now plater is tilted to one side

Planter was gorgeous!!! Better than I expected! I used it for a Graduation filled with wood flowers. Everyone was commenting how they loved the container, the flowers and the whole arrangement! I'll definitely buy more product from this company!

We like massive hanging planter pots for geraniums, spider plants, etc. and this fits the bill. I've seen these cheaper locally, but can't always find them, so I'm glad Amazon has them. Even though the pot is quite light weight, when they have mature plants like geraniums in them that have been watered recently, the pot can weigh 25-30 lbs, and that is about all the weight I can lift. I guess when I get older, I'll just have to wait until the plant dries out awhile! I attach a 4 wire or 4 chain plant hanger as follows: I suspect the pot is too thin to safely attach S-hooks to or wrap wires thru a hole in the rim, so I buy a 2 hoop tomato/vegetable support frame ($3.50 at the local big box nursery) and use one of the hoops to reinforce the pot's rim as follows: put a new U-bend in one of the steel hoops so it is just the right diameter to nestle under the rim of this pot. Then drill 4 holes for the plant hanger wires to go thru the pot rim, wrap around the hoop, then come back out and twist a turn or so around the down wire. If I'm attaching a planter hanger that uses chains instead of wire, I connect the end of the chains to the hoop with a short loop of steel bailing wire that is twisted together under the hoop out of sight. I should mention we live in the high desert with high temperatures in the summer, hard freezes in the winter, and lots of sunshine, yet our 7 pots have gone one and some 2 seasons with no cracks or other damage. Haven't been able to find 4 wire 24" swivel plant hangers anywhere this year - so sad, so I'm making my own with an S-hook, a plant swivel (called "spinners" on Amazon), and 2 straight 4' lengths of steel bailing wire bent in half (straighten the coiled wire first by stretching it (two people with pliers, or you'll need a vise or a light pole or ? if you're alone)). Look for galvanized wire - they don't rust for years.

Looks nice, but not very sturdy. I bought 2 and one doesn't sit squarely on the base.

Saw them on line looked good. Received them in mail,and was somewhat taken back by what I thought was cheap white plastic YUK, basically. But then I put them together and plant my Lilly bulbs in them and used the flower rings that I also brought on Amazon. Well,WOW... was I surprised. I was so judgmental at first, I should not have judged a planter by its parts. They held up marvelously and looked so good. So many neighbors came over to ask and they could not believe the price nor the structural value of the white plastic containers. So Do I and would I recommend these without hesitation they clean up nice and they store for winter really well. I hope others enjoy these as much as I have.

Attractive. Light weight. A good addition to a large garden.
