Large Garden Pots and planters

Pots used in gardens serve two main purposes, the functional purpose of holding a plant, and then secondly a landscaping, decorative or architectural purpose. It is for the second purpose that many large garden pots or large planters are used. Large Garden Pots also have the advantage of allowing plants to grow with a cooler root zone as larger pots heat up less rapidly than smaller pots.

Be aware of weight when installing or shifting large garden pots and planters. A large pot or planter plus potting soil plus plant can weigh a considerable amount.

GRC or 'Fibre glass reinforced concrete' is an increasingly popular material for the manufacture of large planters and pots. GRC combines strength and lightweight, two desirable characteristics for larger garden pots.

It is possible to find bigger sized pots and planters in a range of materials including traditional terra cotta, timber lined with planter liners, metal and aluminum. Consider the style and effect of any large planter in relationship to the overall style of the garden or courtyard. Custom made planters including colored fibreglass, are available from some manufactures.
