Our Globe Fiberglass Planter showcases a basic spherical shape, only with a modern twist. The full globe shape is the quintessential mix of traditional and contemporary styles as the round planters easily compliment any space around the home, garden or office.
These large plant pots look like they are heavy, but you would be surprised to find that they are actually rather easy to move around. This is because these contemporary round planters are made out of our tough, yet lightweight fiberglass. We have chosen fiberglass for the construction of our Globe Planter due to its outstanding strength and long-lasting durability. While plastic pots have a tendency to chip and crack after just one season, our pot planters will retain their quality for many years to come. You can use them as either commercial outdoor planters or as decorative indoor planters.
The large plant containers are available in multiple colors, finishes and sizes. Select a couple of all white planters to place at various points in the garden, pick up a few matte black planters to use as patio pots or grab some of the eggplant and cobalt blue ones to give your favorite room a fresh pop of color.
The Globe Planter is a modern marvel, its spherical shape a striking departure from traditional planter designs. Crafted from durable fiberglass, this modern sphere planter is built to last, whether it graces your indoor living space or your outdoor garden. Available in a range of sizes, from petite to grand, the Globe Planter offers versatility, accommodating various plant types and seamlessly blending with diverse design styles.

Care and Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and beauty of your Globe Planter, follow these simple care and maintenance tips:
- Cleaning: Regularly clean the planter with mild soap and water to remove dirt, dust, and algae. Avoid using harsh chemicals that can damage the fiberglass surface.
- Drainage: Proper drainage is essential to prevent waterlogging, which can lead to root rot. If the planter does not have pre-drilled drainage holes, drill a few small holes in the bottom. Place a layer of gravel or pebbles at the bottom of the planter to improve drainage.
- Watering: Water your plants regularly, but avoid overwatering. Allow the soil to dry slightly between waterings. The frequency of watering will depend on the type of plants, climate, and pot size.
- Fertilizing: Fertilize your plants every few months during the growing season. Use a balanced liquid fertilizer diluted to half strength.
- Winter Protection: If you live in a cold climate, protect your outdoor planters from freezing temperatures. Bring them indoors or cover them with a protective blanket.
