How to Choose the Right Outdoor Pots

The right outdoor pots should complement your space while providing the conditions your plants need to thrive. Before making your selection, consider these key factors:

• Size and proportions — Match the pot to both the plant and its surroundings. Our large pots work well for statement planting, while extra-large pots can accommodate substantial plants and create impressive focal points.
• Plant and root requirements — Consider how much room the roots will need as the plant matures. Trees and established shrubs generally require deeper, wider containers than herbs, flowers or succulents. 
• Drainage — Effective drainage helps prevent excess water from collecting around the roots. Depending on your setup, pot feet can also help elevate pots and encourage water to drain away.
• Weight and placement — Think about whether you’ll need to reposition your garden pots. Lightweight materials can make larger pieces easier to handle, while heavier options may provide greater stability in exposed locations.
• Style and aesthetic — Choose an outdoor pot that complements your home, landscaping and surrounding materials. Shape, textures and colours can all help tie your design together.

Choosing the Right Outdoor Pot Material

Different materials offer distinct practical and aesthetic advantages, so consider where your pots will sit and the look you want to achieve. Stonelite and GRC pots combine strength with relatively lightweight construction, making them particularly useful for contemporary spaces and larger plantings.

Terracotta offers a warm, traditional appearance and naturally porous construction, making it a popular choice for plants that favour well-drained conditions. Atlantis pots are ideal when you want a more aged, rustic aesthetic, with textured finishes that bring character to both classic and contemporary gardens.

Glazed and decorative outdoor pots introduce colour, pattern and polished finishes. They work particularly well when you want your planters to become part of the overall design rather than simply hold plants.

Best Plants for Outdoor Pots

Container planting gives you the flexibility to grow everything from compact herbs to substantial feature plants. Some particularly suitable choices include:

• Trees and shrubs — Citrus, olives and many compact shrubs can thrive in generously sized garden pots, provided they have sufficient room for their roots.
• Ornamental grasses — Grasses add height, texture and movement while working particularly well with streamlined contemporary planters.
• Succulents — Their varied shapes and relatively modest watering requirements make succulents excellent choices for decorative displays.
• Flowers and herbs — Seasonal flowers bring colour to patios and entrances, while herbs such as rosemary, thyme and basil make attractive and practical additions to sunny outdoor areas.

Always consider the mature size, sunlight requirements and watering needs of your chosen plant when matching it with a container. Our planting guide can provide additional information.

Styling Outdoor Pots

Thoughtfully positioned outdoor pots can define areas, introduce greenery and create focal points throughout a property. Frame an entrance with matching planters for symmetry, or use a single oversized piece to draw attention to a doorway.

On patios and courtyards, group different heights and shapes to create a layered display without requiring permanent garden beds. Around pool surrounds, streamlined pots can soften hard surfaces and introduce greenery while maintaining a clean, structured appearance.

For balconies, choose appropriately scaled or lightweight planters that provide visual impact without overwhelming limited floor space. Across larger landscaped areas, repeated pots can define pathways, separate entertaining zones or introduce consistency throughout the design.
