OUTDOOR PLANTERS

Planters are an excellent way to bring greenery and life to your outdoor space, whether it is a small patio or a large backyard. The right planters can improve the appearance and functionality of your outdoor space, making it a more inviting place to relax and enjoy. You can consider the following factors when selecting planters for your outdoor living space:

Materias: Planters are available in a wide range of materials, including wood, metal, ceramic, and plastic. Each material has its own unique characteristics and benefits. Wood planters are natural and warm, but they may require more maintenance and may not be as durable as other materials. Metal planters are durable and easy to maintain, but they may not be as comfortable as other materials. Ceramic planters are stylish and elegant, but they may be more fragile and difficult to move. Plastic planters are lightweight and easy to move, but they may not be as durable as other materials. This is one of the deciding factors that's important when choosing your planter.

Size & Shape: Planters comes in all shapes and sizes. However, to consider the size and shape of your outdoor space when choosing planters depends on the space that you have. Make sure that the planters are proportionate to the space and leave enough room for people to move around and socialize. You may also want to consider the shape and style of the planters, as well as how they will complement the other elements in your outdoor space.

Drainage: Proper drainage is important for the health and well-being of your plants. This also helps your environment as it may help with reducing any kind of bacterias or insects that might live in your backyard. Make sure that the planters you choose have drainage holes to allow excess water to escape and prevent root rot. If the planters don't have drainage holes, consider adding them yourself or using a liner to prevent water from pooling at the bottom of the planter.

Weight: If you plan to move your planters around, weight is an important consideration. Lighter planters are easier to move, but they may be less stable and prone to tipping over. Heavier planters are more stable, but they may be more difficult to move. As we all know, it is an inconvenience if you are unable to freely move your planters and be able to take them in any space that you like. Specially when cleaning them. 

Budget: Planters can range in price from a few dollars to several hundred dollars, depending on the materials, size, and features. Determine your budget before shopping and look for planters that fit within your price range. Most vintage or antique planters are more expensive than others because of the value they hold and the materials that was used can last a lifetime.
