Can I plant directly into this planter?

Troubleshooting
Planter appears to be rusting.
This can occur with prolonged exposure to moisture. Gently clean the rusted area with a soft brush. For minor rust, a metal polish might help restore the finish. Consider applying a protective sealant if the planter is kept outdoors in a wet environment.
Drainage seems insufficient for plants.
Ensure drainage holes are clear. If no holes are present, consider drilling small holes in the base or using a layer of gravel and a separate inner pot to manage water.
The finish looks faded.
This may be due to sun exposure. Clean the planter with a damp cloth. For outdoor use, a clear metal sealant spray can help protect the finish from UV damage and fading.
