Home gardeners are always looking for ways to create the perfect centrepiece. Whether it be stunning sculpture, wonderful water feature or something completely different, the centrepiece is the garden showstopper, the design that delights visitors and captivates their imaginations!
One of the ideal ways to invigorate your garden and grant it that perfect centrepiece is through a large plant pot. They allow you to locate them in the corner and grow smaller varieties around them or place them right in the centre to create a gorgeously vibrant showstopper.
But either way you use them you are bound to enjoy the following benefits:

You can grow large plants in them
Looking to grow a large plant in pot to really amplify the garden’s aesthetic? Then these are the perfect planters! They provide plenty of room to grow your dream varieties whilst allowing them to steal the show and create the perfect centrepiece. Australia is home to plenty of bigger varieties, including banksia, bottlebrush, eucalyptus, waratah and more, providing plenty of opportunity to grow big flowering natives as your centrepiece.
Obviously, you don’t have to choose Aussie natives for your centrepiece, but they are typically beautifully colourful and provide plenty of vibrancy to your space. Other large varieties you can grow include bamboo, hibiscus lavender, topiary box buxus and more!
They make for the perfect centrepiece
There are many ways you can create the perfect garden centrepiece and the big planter is certainly one of them. After all, they not only provide a stylishly contemporary aesthetic, but they still allow you to grow lush foliage that will blend in with the garden whilst standing out amongst the other varieties.
This makes it the perfect centrepiece for homeowners looking to base their gardens on greenery as opposed to materials like steel and concrete (as is the case with installing sculptures and water features!). So, if you want your garden to be one that amplifies the space’s natural beauty then the big planter is perfect for you.
They are incredibly durable…
… if you choose the right material. For example, big fiberglass planters are revered for their strength and durability. They are incredibly UV-resistant, meaning they don’t depreciate even in the hottest of Australian summers, and you will enjoy their stylish aesthetic for years to come.
Finally, they are incredibly easy to relocate despite their strength, meaning you can place them in the centre of your garden or make them a corner piece that you grow other beautiful varieties around. Either way, they are super tough and will provide plenty of stability for a long time to come!
It makes gardening easier
You may love gardening but you may have an ongoing injury that restricts your movement. This can make in-ground gardening incredibly difficult and can even agitate the injury. This is the last thing you want when you want to enjoy this super healthy hobby!
Thankfully, larger plant pots exist to make gardening that little bit easier for people who love their spaces but may have restricted movement. They provide much easier access than in-ground plants and, if you purchase the likes of fiberglass containers, are much easier to lift, making it easier for you to relocate your plants (but maybe with a little assistance if your injury is susceptible of worsening during relocation).
So, as you can see, these designs are perfect for gardeners looking to create the perfect centrepiece!
