Decorative garden pots and patio containers can transform your garden into a true reflection of your style. From Italian-inspired terracotta pots to modern plastic designs, each option adds its own unique charm. Also available at Woolpit Nurseries are decorative garden stones and chippings, bark, compost, farmyard manure, and grow bags—everything you need to make your garden thrive.
Choose pots that are appropriately sized for your plants. Smaller pots are ideal for compact plants such as Geraniums and other bedding plants but need frequent watering. Larger pots provide more space for root growth such as shrubs and trees and require less frequent watering. A good rule of thumb is to select a pot with a diameter 2-4 inches larger than your plant.
Tall, Narrow Planters: Best for deep-rooted plants like topiary.
Short, Round Pots: Ideal for compact, bushy plants.
Wide Bowls: Suitable for shallow-rooted plants and trailing varieties.
The material of your pot affects both its look and function. At Woolpit Nurseries, you’ll find pots made from a variety of materials:
Terracotta Pots: Add a Mediterranean flair to your garden, though they can be porous and prone to frost damage.
Plastic Pots: Lightweight, affordable, and available in many colors, but may fade over time.
Ceramic Pots: Classy and durable, though heavier and more fragile.
Wooden Pots: Eco-friendly and rustic, but need protection from the elements.
Metal Planters: Stylish and durable, but can get hot in the sun and may rust over time.
Proper drainage is essential for the health of your plants. Ensure your garden pots have adequate drainage holes to prevent waterlogging, which can lead to root rot.
Ideal for adding a touch of Tuscany to your garden.
Perfect for those who love intricate designs.
Bring a natural, organic feel to your outdoor space.
A good choice for a lightweight and budget-friendly option.
