A staple of garden design, wood planters remain popular due to their gorgeous natural tones and ease of customisation. Available in more timbers than ever before, wooden planters can be divided into hardwood and softwood variants. Hardwood, notable for its resistance to decay, can last up to 40 years untreated though the price is higher as the timber grows slowly. Softwoods on the other hand, fast growing and light, are available at a lower cost and are usually treated to extend their lifespan. You're not even limited to natural colours - check out our black and grey silver options!
