Add drainage holes · free

Yes No

Outdoor planters usually need drainage. Indoors, most people leave them sealed.

Which should I choose?

Why it matters
Rain and irrigation collect in a sealed planter with nowhere to go. In cold climates that water can freeze and expand, which may damage the planter. Standing water is also hard on most plants.

Do I need it?

Outdoors: almost always, especially anywhere that freezes.
Indoors: usually not. A sealed planter works as a cachepot or holds a nursery liner, which is what most people want on a floor they would rather keep dry.

What we do
Drilling is free and done before your planter ships, to the manufacturer's specification:

1 to 2 inch holes every 12 inches of planter length.
For example, a 60 inch planter gets 4 to 5 holes.
If you prefer to drill your own later, use the same spacing. Holes outside these guidelines are not covered by the warranty.

One thing to know

Drilling cannot be undone, so a drilled planter is final sale.

Shipping & Delivery

Made to order
Each planter is hand-finished when you order it. Allow 3 to 5 business days of production before your order ships. Gloss finishes need 5 to 7.

Curbside freight delivery
This size ships on a pallet by freight truck for a flat $395, free on orders over $2,000. The driver lowers it to the curb with a liftgate; plan for a second person to move it into place. The carrier will call to schedule a delivery window, so please be available. Freight transit is usually 3 to 5 business days once the pallet leaves, and up to 7 to the Mountain states and the West Coast. You will get tracking when the pallet leaves, and we will confirm the delivery window with you once the carrier books it.

Returns
This size is final sale except for a manufacturer defect or shipping damage.

If it arrives damaged
Inspect the shipment before you sign. Note any damage on the bill of lading or delivery receipt before signing — to the boxes, the planter, or the packing material. A delivery that arrives visibly damaged or not intact may also be refused outright. You are entitled to open each box and inspect the goods; if the driver will not wait, write on the paperwork that you could not check for concealed damage. Report it to us in writing within 24 hours of delivery at customerservice@sereneyards.com, with photos of the damage, the cartons and the packing material, and keep all packaging until the claim is resolved. Damage noted at delivery and reported this way is covered — contact us and we'll make it right, either by replacing the planter or refunding you. Damage not noted at the time of delivery is much harder to resolve, because the carrier claim depends on that record. Full details are in our Shipping Policy.

Return & Refund Policy

Every Jay Scotts planter carries a three-year limited manufacturer warranty against defects in materials and workmanship, which applies whether or not an item is returnable.

The Siena looks like a run of stacked walnut planks. It is fiberglass, and the texture is molded into the shell rather than applied to it.

That distinction is the reason to choose it. Real timber in a planter swells, splits, silvers in sun and wants sealing every second season, and the trough is the worst possible place to ask wood to hold up, because one face is permanently against wet soil. This gives the same horizontal banding and the same dark walnut tone with none of that: non-porous, UV-resistant, and unchanged after a winter outside.

The trade is choice. It is made in this one finish, so unlike the rest of the range there is no color to specify. Four lengths from three to six feet, seventeen inches deep and two feet tall, taking a few large plants rather than many small ones: five thirteen-inch nursery pots across the seventy-two. Keep a soft brush for the plank grooves, which hold more dust than a flat wall. Freight at every length.

Siena Planter in the studio

Made to look considered on a patio, deck, or entryway for years.

Built to last

Every piece we carry is chosen to last, indoors or out, and look considered for years, not seasons.

Wood look, no upkeep

Walnut grain, without the rot

The board texture is molded into fiberglass, so there is no timber to split, warp, rot or seal.

Edging height

Defines a line, keeps the view

At 24 inches it holds a genuine body of soil while staying below sightline, so a run marks an edge without walling the space off.

Stays outside

Through freezing winters

Non-porous, so it does not absorb the water that expands on freezing and holds its shape through winter.

Questions, answered

Can the Siena be used indoors and outdoors?

Yes. Non-porous, so it does not absorb the water that expands on freezing.

Drainage is what decides it in practice: water left standing in an undrained planter through a freeze is the common failure, not the material.

What sizes does it come in?

Four lengths — 36, 48, 60 and 72 inches — all 17 inches deep and 24 inches tall.

Is this real wood?

No. The Siena is premium composite fiberglass with a textured walnut finish molded into the body. It gives the grain and color of weathered walnut with no timber to rot, split, warp or seal, and it is far lighter than wood.

How is it different from the Sedona?

Same footprint and finish, different height: the Siena stands 24 inches tall, the Sedona 32. Choose the Siena to edge, the Sedona to screen.

Does it come with drainage holes?

Not by default, so it can hold a liner. You can add drilled drainage free when you choose your size, though a drilled planter is final sale.

How heavy is it, and how does it ship?

From 48.5 lb for the 36 inch up to 85.0 lb for the 72 inch. It ships by curbside freight at a $395 flat rate, free over $2,000.

Do I have to fill a tall planter with soil all the way down?

No, and on a deep planter you should not. Some models carry an integrated internal ledge about 10 to 12 inches below the rim that holds a nursery pot, so the planting sits at the top and the depth below stays empty. A ledge weighs about 3 to 5 pounds and carries 75 to 100 pounds, and it is made for selected models at extra cost. Without one, lighten the base with empty plastic bottles or jugs. Avoid anything that breaks down, which encourages mold and bacteria.

What soil should I use?

Potting soil, potting mix or container mix only. Topsoil is heavy and gets heavier when wet, which puts outward pressure on the planter walls and compacts where a container mix stays open. Set the root ball one to three inches below the rim, water to settle it, and finish with a top dressing such as river rock or moss.
