This large planter is so good looking that I plan to use it indooors for a tall decorative plant. The design is handsome & has the look of a heavy terra cotta planter. However, the materials from which it's made are light-weight which will make it easy to move even when it contains a large plant ! It will need to have drainage holes drilled in the bottom for proper draining which the ad said is easily done. Then, a real terra cotta plate will need to go underneath. The planter was priced well & I'm looking forward to filling it with a nice plant.
