Ceramic pots can be very expensive. I like to keep a lookout for pieces I can repurposed and when I have the time to get out my woodworking tools I make wooden planters too.

Handmade every time, it has so much character and supports maker(s)

Nothing beats the charm of a handmade ceramic pot. :-)

Definitely has to be the handmade ceramic pot as just looks so much better and has more character.

This is an example of a fantastic Fibreglass planter made by Europlanters. They are very long lasting and can be made in up to 1000 colours.

How about handmade, GRP planters, nice and light weight, save your back! any finish and style

Prefer plastic planters to ensure planters protected from frost.
