Garden Planters

Why choose our garden planters?

You can use garden planters to add some extra greenery to your garden, dress up your patio, or provide plant life for your balcony. There are loads of sizes to choose from, from large wooden planters to place next to the pergola, to small plastic planters for small spaces.

Having a selection of planters can help add some interest to your garden and give choice for when your fruit & veg are getting a bit big for their pots. Simply fill with compost and water in your plants to encourage healthy growth. Planters themselves can be a stylish piece of garden kit, with beautiful designs and colours to choose from.

Benefits of our planters for gardens

Mobility

Unlike your garden beds, garden planters are easy to move around your garden as you see fit, so you can take control on customising your outside space. Try popping one alongside your garden bench, next to the summer house, or planting climbing plants for dressing up your garden arbour.

Versatility

Almost all plants are happy in a planter if they have room. Whether you’re framing your patio or putting planters next to a garden arch, you can customise your planter with the plants you love and make your garden space work around you.

Easy maintenance

Keeping your garden planters well-watered during warmer months will keep them looking their best. For wooden planters, a lick of garden furniture paint can make sure the wood is in good condition and looks its best!

FAQs

How do I choose the right size of garden planter?

With so many sizes to choose from, the size of your garden planter depends on how much room you have to play with! You should also consider the root depth of the plants you’re hoping to grow, as they won’t do brilliantly if they don’t have enough space.

What type of soil should I use in garden planters?

Use a good quality potting mix for your garden planters with good drainage. As your plants become established, adding a layer of garden compost (either bought in or homemade with a compost bin) will feed nutrients down into the soil. Or you could always use some plant food to keep them happy too!

Can I reuse garden planters for different plants?

They certainly can, but make sure to empty out your planter of existing soil and clean it thoroughly to avoid any pests.
