Rusting Process
The image to the left shows how the planter will look when it first arrives and before the protective layer has started forming, looking much like any normal steel planter. If you wish, you can speed up the rusting process by using a cloth and rubbing the surface with salt and/or vinegar.
Handy Drainage Hole and Bung
To provide adequate drainage each Corten Steel Planter includes a drainage hole and bung in the bottom of the bass, helping you retain or release water from your planter. If left in the planter the bung will help retain as much water as possible, however we cannot completely guarantee that no water will escape while the bung is in use.
Please note: Once the planter has developed its protective rust layer it has the potential to stain objects it comes in contact with, please be mindful where you place your planter.
