Brisbane Wide Rectangular Planter

Why the Brisbane Wide Rectangular Planter Belongs in Your Space

Big projects call for a big canvas, and this wide rectangular planter delivers - available in 36, 48, 60, and 72‑inch lengths, all a generous 24 inches deep and 32 inches tall. 

That sweeping footprint lets you build a living wall along a patio rail, frame a grand entry, or anchor a low sofa in an open‑concept loft without blocking sight lines.

Placement Made Practical

Indoors, slide the 4‑foot model behind a sectional to double as a sleek console brimming with trailing pothos. 

On a balcony, two 48‑inch pieces bookend a grill zone and curb wind without feeling bulky.

Restaurants often line up the 72‑inch version to carve out “rooms,” but homeowners can steal the same trick to screen a hot tub or AC unit. 

Because the fiberglass shell is surprisingly lightweight for its size, you can re‑position seasonally without wrestling concrete‑level heft.

Design Notes & Style Pairings

The Brisbane’s crisp, 90‑degree edges read modern, yet its understated profile slips into transitional or even coastal rooms with ease.

Pair one extra‑wide planter pot with low‑slung mid‑century furniture for a gallery vibe, or cluster multiples against reclaimed‑wood cladding for an urban‑farmhouse look. 

Outdoors, the rectangular geometry echoes contemporary decking and straight‑run fencing, so everything feels intentionally aligned.

Planting Ideas That Pop

Architectural greens: Snake plants or Harmoney bamboo accentuate the planter’s length and create an instant privacy hedge.

Pollinator parade: Alternate dwarf lavender with compact cone flowers for a fragrant 3‑season ribbon of color.

Tropical punch: In climates that allow, layer dwarf bananas behind neon green pothos for a lush, resort‑like border.

Edible edge: Kale, rainbow chard, and trailing rosemary turn the planter into a mobile kitchen garden - especially handy on apartment terraces.

Because the planter is 24 inches deep, roots of small ornamental trees thrive without hitting bottom - rare for a wide planter box.

Playing With Finish & Surroundings

JBD offers twenty finishes, from Gloss Bright White to Matte Black, plus metallics such as Bronze and Silver. 

A few tried‑and‑true combos:

Matte Black + Warm Woods: The inky planter contrasts teak furniture and highlights glossy foliage - ideal for a moody rooftop lounge.

Gloss Bright White + Desert Palette: Pair with terracotta cushions and agaves; the high‑key planter reflects light, cooling sun‑baked patios.

Metallic Bronze + Jewel Tones: Think emerald pillows, aubergine pots, and golden accents inside a boho sunroom.

Matte Cement Gray + Pastels: Dusty roses and seafoam accessories soften the industrial edge, perfect for Scandinavian‑leaning interiors.

Because finishes are automotive‑grade with UV blockers, black won’t chalk out and whites resist yellowing - even in full Texas sun. 

Care & Long‑Term Value

Fiberglass shrugs off freeze–thaw cycles, salt spray, and daily watering. Stick with mild dish soap for cleanup; skip bleach or power‑washing. An annual coat of marine wax keeps glossy shades mirror‑smooth, while matte surfaces stay chic with a quick wipe‑down.

Final Take

Whether you need a wide planter to green a 30‑story lobby or to ground an open‑plan living room, the Brisbane offers scale, style, and stamina in one statement piece. 

Pick your length, choose a finish that flatters your palette, then let the plants roll in.
