Why large decorative outdoor planters make a good gift

  • Makes container gardening possible on patios, decks and balconies without digging a bed.
  • Frames an entrance or seating area and changes with each season's plantings.
  • A practical gift for new homeowners furnishing an outdoor space for the first time.

What to look for

  • Check for drainage holes, or whether the planter can be drilled easily.
  • Confirm the height and diameter, and consider how heavy it will be once filled.
  • Choose frost-resistant materials, since terracotta and some ceramics can crack in freezing weather.

Questions people ask

What size planter should I buy?
Measure the spot first. Larger containers hold more soil, which dries out more slowly and suits bigger plants.
Can large planters stay outside in winter?
Fibreglass, resin and some concrete planters handle freezing well, but emptying terracotta and ceramic pots before winter helps prevent cracking.
