How to Choose a Tabletop Planter

Steps to Choosing the Right Tabletop Planter

Every plant lover knows a tabletop arrangement is a final touch to any space, whether outside on the garden terrace or in a sunny room. Live plants make the space special. Four factors go into the correct choice of a planter.

• Type and size of the table where you are placing the planter.
• The amount of light determines what kind of plant can grow in the space.
• Your style, find the right fit for your aesthetic.
• Planter versatility, such as use for special occasions or year-round.

The planter needs to fit the proportion of the table. For example, the Barca Planter by Campania International is ideal for a rectangular table. It is available in several different lengths and is a simple, classic design that will fit any home decor. On the other hand, a small end table requires a planter of a similar size, with a bit of height, such as the Lisette Urn. This elegant cast stone urn showcases a favorite indoor plant or garden flower.

When working outdoors or indoors, it is essential to understand the type of light you have for your plants. Southern and East-facing windows are hotter and lighter, perfect for Orchids and succulents. These plants often thrive in breathable terra cotta planters that help manage moisture in bright sun. Compared to Northern and West-facing windows, soft morning light works well for Pothos and Zanzibar plants. Keep in mind that most plants will adapt to their environments so long as it does not go from one extreme to another.

Style is the reflection of you on your space. There is a tabletop planter that will suit your space, classic, modern, colorful, or eclectic, whatever your aesthetic. The Broken Egg Planter is a fun design that full of character. Its simple shape is perfect for various plants, and the edged top gives it a unique look. This type of decorative ceramic planter would be great as a gift with a colorful flowering plant like a mini orchid.

The best tabletop designs work beautifully throughout the year, offering both style and versatility. Lightweight fiberglass composite planters or plastic planters are especially convenient for transitioning from an outdoor patio to an indoor centerpiece as the seasons change. For instance, a corner arrangement of succulents can be jazzed up with battery-powered lights for a holiday party, while a larger centerpiece can hold electric tea lights for added ambiance. When the suitable planter is in the right spot, it provides a high-end connection to the natural environment.
