PSW Pot M30DC Collection Shallow Garden Bowl Low Planter for Succulents, Bonsai, Fairy Gardens, Herbs, 12-inch, Dark Charcoal

This 12" bowl is a hit at our house!The material is a strong solid composit of stone powder, wood powder, and plastic (100% recycled). It's not quite as heavy as pottery, yet very substantual... not like a foam or plastic pot.The bowl design is perfect. Artistically shaped and with nice finish, the deep charcoal color is uniform as is the surface sheen.Looking forward to many years of bonsai-Lotus on our slate colored tile porch.Product arrived overnight as advertised. Can't wait for the two matching smaller bowles tomorrow!

Beautiful! Exactly what I was looking for. It looks like a very expensive bowl but is still lightweight! I used it to make a big candle and loved how it came out. The candle wax did sweat through a tiny bit when it was setting but it was mind if expected for the type of material. I also bought a smaller dark gray one too and it’s the same great quality

I didn't really want a plastic pot, I was looking for clay. I'm in southern AZ and plastic tends to heat up too much in the hot sun. But I couldn't find the size and shape I wanted in clay, so I decided to take a chance on this seeing as how it's not 100% plastic and maybe will have better properties. I got the light taupe color to avoid soaking in too much heat. It does feel like a very sturdy plastic but I'm hoping it will have a little more breathability. In any case, I did drill a bunch of holes in the bottom to ensure drainage. I don't know why other people seem to be having a hard time drilling holes, my drill went right through it with ease and no cracking at all. What I really love about this pot is that it really does look like clay, not like plastic at all. I have an actual clay pot that is the same light brown color and this looks almost exactly like it in texture. It's really beautiful and I don't have to worry about breakage as much as with a clay pot that cracks if you even look at it funny. If it doesn't work out for live container planting, I will definitely find other uses for it.

Nice looking bowl it is a light weight thick plastic. Works for a catch all for my husbands wallet and keys

Good quality. Love the color and it looks like a terra cotta pot.

I looked everywhere for a sturdy, deep bird bath for our pigeons. I wanted something deep enough that they could submerge most of their feathers, wide enough to fit their whole bodies, stable enough that it doesn't spill when they splash around, and moveable so no need to screw in or be in a stand. I found nothing. Parakeet baths are too small, outdoor bird baths require some sort of stand or brace, and parrot baths are outrageously expensive. So instead, I started searching for cheap big bowls, but it was hard to find anything heavy enough that my birds couldn't tip it over. I don't remember how I stumbled across these planters, but they are PERFECT. I bought one for our white pigeon who LOVES to bathe, and it worked so well that I just bought a second for our other pigeon. I know this isn't their intended purpose, but they are still ideal as an indoor pigeon bath. They're attractive too. Highly recommended!

They are plastic, and don't have any drainage holes.

I fill this with water and have a solar powered fountain floating in it to keep the water from getting stagnant. It has been perfect for providing fresh water for community cats, small wildlife and birds during our increasingly dry summers.
