A wooden planter is more than a container for plants. It adds structure to a garden or terrace and combines greenery with the warm, natural look of timber.

At Dutchwoodcraft, we make custom wooden planters in our own workshop. Length, width and height can be tailored to the available space and the type of planting.

The terms wooden planter box, garden planter and wooden plant box are often used for the same type of product: a strong timber container for flowers, grasses, shrubs and larger plants.

A reclaimed wood planter has a robust, characterful appearance and combines naturally with other reclaimed wood outdoor furniture.

A Douglas wood planter offers a warmer timber colour and works well in both contemporary and more natural garden designs.

A planter on legs has a lighter visual appearance than a fully closed planter and raises the planting so it becomes more prominent.

A long raised planter can work especially well alongside a house, under a covered terrace or as a decorative boundary between different outdoor zones.

For larger projects, we also make large wooden planters that can be used as individual statement pieces or repeated across a terrace.

A long planter box can combine planting with a practical terrace divider, creating structure without using a solid wall.

With taller grasses, bamboo or shrubs, a privacy planter can help create more shelter and separation on a terrace.

Wooden planters are also useful as natural dividers around restaurant terraces, hotel seating areas and commercial entrances.

A custom planter box is particularly useful when standard sizes are too short, too deep or too high for the available space.

The height of a planter changes its effect. A low planter keeps sight lines open, while a tall wooden planter can work more strongly as a divider or privacy screen.

The depth should also match the planting. Larger shrubs and plants need more soil volume than small seasonal flowers or ornamental grasses.

Because each piece is made to measure, the proportions of a wooden garden planter can be coordinated with the terrace, architecture and surrounding furniture.

Planter boxes can be matched to other Dutchwoodcraft outdoor furniture so that tables, benches, lounge furniture and planters share the same timber colour and overall style.

A made-to-measure wooden planter works in both modern and traditional gardens because timber adds warmth next to stone, steel, concrete and paving.

For contemporary architecture, clean rectangular planter boxes provide strong lines while the natural grain of the wood keeps the overall look warm.

For commercial projects, different planter lengths and heights can be combined while keeping the same timber and finish, creating variation within a consistent design.

We make wooden planters for private gardens as well as restaurants, hotels, leisure venues, offices, showrooms and other professional locations.

Our own workshop allows us to respond to unusual dimensions, specific layouts and larger series of matching planters.

In our showroom in Neede, you can compare timber colours and finishes and discuss the right dimensions for your terrace, garden, entrance or project.
