Planter Shape Guide

You may think that most planters are a standard shape and you don’t have a lot of choices. This couldn’t be further from the truth at JBD Concepts where we have a diverse range of shapes to suit all plants and areas.

 

A general guide is that containers come in rectangular, square, or round shapes. However, we also stock some unique pieces, like our globe or rock-shaped pots.

 

Rectangular-shaped pots provide a heavy base that is ideal for top-heavy plants. Round-shaped pots go best with flowers and plants that are bushy. Square planters are usually a favorite among interior designers and tend to suit long straight plants.

Planter Size Guide

An easy way to size plant pots is to simply measure the diameter of the pot. For some people, to make sure there is enough room, they also need to calculate the volume. This is a bit trickier than just using a tape measure.

 

The plant pot size also varies depending on what kind of plant you want to fill the container with. Obviously, large plants and trees require large containers, but it’s also important to research your plant a little to find out about how they grow and which is the right planter for it.

 

Another consideration is the location of the pot. Small flower pots tend to suit indoor areas, like bookshelves and desks. Large planters are usually suited for outdoor use. You may also want to consider the height of the plant and pot.
