Plant Stand Tips
The addition of a plant stand on your patio will add interest and color. There are a myriad of options, not only for the plant stand itself, but also for the containers, plants and flowers you can display. Here are some tips to help you choose a suitable plant stand.
1. A plant stand for any patio needs to be made from a material that will withstand outdoor conditions, even if the patio is covered, should be treated for rust by galvanizing, powder coating or painting.
2. Another type of plant stand is often referred to as a basket stand, lined with biodegradable coco fiber. These are great for a natural look, but durable as well.
3. A plant stand is an ideal place to display variations of one sort of plant – an approach that works beautifully when decorating your patio. Examples include different colored petunias, or a collection of impatiens.
4. A plant stand may be used to display interesting grasses and ornaments, not only plants.
5. Use a plant stand at one end of the patio as a focal point.
6. Floor planters are also a variation of a plant stand, only they are positioned closer to the floor.
7. A decorative metal type of plant stand typically holds any size plant containers, or pots. They come in a wide variety of styles and colors.
8. Specialty plant stand versions come in many shapes and sizes. Some examples include oblong shaped plant stand, a tiered plant stand that sits on the floor and extends upwards, and plant stand trees with arms that hold plant baskets.

I have the perfect location in my garden for this plant stand…not sure what the plant will be that will be my challenge…
This would be beautiful in a cottage garden.
That is so beautiful!
This would look nice in my backyard, I have trees and grass but could use a litle whimsy…
This would look awesome in my Butterfly garden
This is really beautiful and would go well with my living room decor. I’m thinking my angel wing would love this. I have the perfect spot.
This is so pretty!Would look lovely sitting on my porch or sun room!
This plant stand would make an outstanding addition for folks who have a large front step. You could change your plants with the seasons and in winter fill with mixed greens and hollies. This planter would be a welcome change from big ceramic pots or resin planters that you see everywhere.
That’s a really neat planter, and would look good in anyone’s garden.
I have the perfect fern to sit on the seat of this adorable chair. It’s a wonderful unique addition to anyone’s porch or patio.
What a clever idea! I want it.
Love this chair! I collect miniature ones and have them sitting around the house. Would be most happy to win this.
I could use this great looking plant stand to keep a planter off the ground and away from the snails!
What a beautiful plant stand. I love the antique green color. What a lovely accent to my pool/screen enclosure. I can’t wait to purchase a lovely plant to accent this wonderful stand.
love the style and versatility of this plant stand, it would work in my yard!
This is a very cool little planter and it would look wonderful on my patio
Looks very nice.
Very pretty
This plant stand would be a lovely addition to the back yard “look” I continually strive to create! Living in a cold and snowy Northern State, I always bring my plant stands inside and overwinter my plants & flowers. That way, I have a colorful indoor garden throughout the long winter.
LOVE IT!!!!
What a pretty plant stand! Perfect for a corner of the patio.
This would go great in grannys garden area. Thank you
