Outdoor Planters That Frame Your Greenery Beautifully

A concrete planter, like the Armen Living Obsidian or Amethyst styles, offers a heavier, more weather-stable base that resists tipping and holds up well to sun and rain, while a metal planter, like the Park Hill Metal Estate or Roanoke styles, is lighter and often brings a more classic, ornamental look with finishes like galvanized or woven metal.

Yes, several of our Armen Living concrete planters, including the Obsidian, Sunstone, and Moonstone styles, are specifically designed as indoor or outdoor pieces, so you can move them between a patio and an entryway or living space without worrying about durability.

A planter is generally designed with practicality in mind for holding soil and plants, while a decorative urn, like the Park Hill Woven Metal Classic Urn or Chinoiserie Fish Bowl Planter, often has a more ornamental silhouette that can be used with or without plantings as a standalone accent piece.

Drainage varies by material and style, so it’s worth checking each individual product listing, but concrete and stoneware planters are generally better suited to functional planting with proper drainage, while decorative metal or galvanized pieces may be better used as a cover pot for a plastic nursery liner.

Our Armen Living concrete planters are available in multiple sizes within the same style, such as the Amethyst Round and Moonstone options, which range across small, medium, and large price points, so you can choose a size based on the plant or tree you’re potting.

A galvanized planter, like the Park Hill Galvanized Wooden Oval Tub, combines a metal-lined interior with a wood exterior for a farmhouse-style look and added rust resistance, while a stoneware planter, like the Acanthus style, has a more traditional ceramic-like finish suited to classic garden and patio settings.

Basket-style planters, like The Light Garden Basket Set of 3 or Palm Leaf Basket Set, are typically best suited for covered or sheltered spaces, such as a porch or sunroom, since woven materials generally aren’t built to handle direct, prolonged rain exposure the way concrete or galvanized metal planters are.

Both options are available. Several styles, like the Armen Living planters and Park Hill Metal Estate Planter, are sold individually, while others, including The Light Garden baskets and the Park Hill Woven Metal Classic Urn, come as sets of 2 or 3 for a coordinated look.

Our planter collection comes in gray, white, and terrazzo finishes, giving you options that range from a soft neutral look to a more textured, speckled finish depending on the material and brand.
