First things first.... this planter is heavy enough to signify that it's not cheap or flimsy (just the kind of quality material that I gravitate towards).  Secondly, I can't wait for it to rust over so I can have that specific "look" that I've been salivating over (decided not to rush the process and let nature take its course).  Lastly, I appreciate the drainage holes (the orange rocket barberry I planted apparently doesn't like wet soil).  Overall, highly recommended!
