LOVE this suana. Maya and Norse Steam Team were amazing to work with!
Metal planters bring warm copper, bright brushed finishes or earthy rust tones to your patio, pool deck and entryway. Choose a low bowl for succulents and seasonal color, or a deeper tapered shape for a small tree or grasses. Every piece here comes from The Outdoor Plus and is made in the USA. You can also choose a bowl that holds plants in the middle and pours water from a front scupper. Each arrives ready to fill and plant; soil and plants are yours to add.
Four metals, four looks for metal planters
Hand hammered copper has fine dimples and starts warm brown, slowly developing a blue-green patina. Brushed stainless steel gives a modern look, stays bright with an occasional wipe and handles sprinklers, salt air and pool splash. The powder-coated steel planters carry a baked-on finish that resists sun and rain, in 15 colors including black, white and copper vein. Corten develops a rustic, rust-colored skin as it weathers.
Corten steel planters for trees and raised beds
For a tree, large metal planters in the round tapered shape have a top measuring 30 or 46 inches and hold up to 20 cubic feet of soil. Choose a low planter box for a raised bed: squares span 20 to 30 inches, and rectangles measure 48 or 60 inches long. Tapered square and rectangular shapes sweep toward a narrow base, with square options reaching 34 inches tall. Prefer a low bowl? Browse planter bowls across materials.
Metal bowls that match your fire and water features
Copper, stainless and powder-coated bowls share molds with the maker’s matching fire and water pieces. Pair copper with hand-hammered copper fire pieces, or explore metal fire pits for steel finishes. For planting and a front spillway together, see planter and water bowls. Browse water bowls, scuppers and fountains for separate water accents.

FAQ
Do metal planters get too hot for plants?
The metal warms in full sun, but soil buffers the roots, so plants can do fine even in hot summers. Larger containers with more soil buffer heat better. In very hot spots, provide afternoon shade, water in the morning and add mulch.
Should I line a metal planter or can I plant straight into it?
You can plant straight into your metal planter without a liner. A nursery pot or plastic liner helps with seasonal swaps and keeps soil off the finish. Use free-draining mix; ask us about drainage for your piece and spot before ordering.
How does Corten steel weather, and will it stain my patio?
Corten’s rust-colored skin deepens from orange to brown over its first seasons, protecting the steel without paint or sealer. Rain can stain pale stone or concrete while it weathers. Use gravel, a bed or a saucer for the first year.
