Q:On the exterior of the box, how high does it sit off ground? I am using it as barrier for dog and don't want her to be able to crawl underneath. Looks pretty low from pictures but getting confused by reading about "raised planter."

A: No. But it is not perfectly sealed so water will drain out. I even lined the bottom inside with weed barrier and put drain holes in that. Seems to work nicely.

Q:We bought one and like it but I don't like the end caps. Can they be removed? They snapped in but don't seem to want to come out and I don't want to break it.

Answer This Question
A: Great question. The top of the planter posts have locking tabs that snap in place when the caps are pressed down. I don't think that there is an easy way to remove the caps once they are installed.
The good news is that this planter is guaranteed to last for 20 years and you'll never have to paint it or stain it!

A: We felt the same way and I even asked on the site and got an answer from the manufacturer. The answer is NO. :-) They do look nice but we would have gotten a lower profile if we could have taken them back off.

Q:Can this pot handle areca palms of something similar?

Answer This Question
A: The Windsor Long Planter would be suitable for an Areca Palm. These plants are quite sensitive to temperature changes, water/humidity and salt buildup. They may fare better in an indoor environment and if you bring the Windsor Long indoors, remember that it is not a sealed planter and excess water will flow through.
This planter is covered by our 20 year warranty and you will never have to paint it or stain it.
