Corten Steel Trough Planters with Feet

Introducing Santa Fe: a beautiful metal planter packed with carefully-considered features. Crafted from stylish and durable Corten steel, this stylish and versatile planter is ready to withstand whatever the British weather throws at it. Boasting neat feet to keep it raised above the ground and pre-drilled holes, it's designed with good drainage in mind. Santa Fe comes in a broad range of sizes to suit all kinds of outdoors spaces, from sprawling, landscaped gardens to more compact courtyards and terraces. With its vivid, rust-coloured finish, it looks good filled with a wide range of plants and greenery, from bright bedding plants to tropical foliage. Corten steel starts out blue-grey in colour and gradually shifts to the orange patina shown when it comes into contact with moisture. Although the colour of rust, this clever coating actually protects the inner metal from corrosion. No wonder garden designers love it! Give your garden a design statement instantly with Santa Fe.

Corten Steel weathering – how it works:

1. Please Note: Corten products can arrive at any stage of weathering. We cannot guarantee what level they will be or even if multiple items ordered at the same time will all be at the same level. Unweathered areas of your planter will be the colour of freshly manufactured steel, with a dark oily coating.
2. As your Corten Steel planter begins to weather, the oily residue will break down.
3. Your planter will begin to change gradually to uniform orange-brown. Please be aware that ‘run-off’ may stain stone or concrete surfaces and bear this in mind when deciding where to place your planter.
4. After 9 months, your planter should be almost entirely rust-coloured. Please be aware that run-off may still occur for several months after the uniform rust colour has been achieved.
