What should I check before purchasing this planter?
Verify the dimensions fit your space (8.5″ × 6″ × 4.75″ approximate). Check if the drainage hole and saucer are appropriate for your plant/pot combination. Note that because each piece has a reactive glaze finish, color/texture may vary from photos.
