Cedar Planters – A Good Choice for Your Patio or Deck

Nothing adds ambiance to your patio or deck like beautiful blooming flowers in the warm months. Planters come in all kinds of shapes, sizes, styles and materials. One great choice for planters is cedar.

Cedar is a very durable, beautiful wood that will last for many years on your deck or patio – especially with a little TLC during off seasons. Cedar planters are a great choice since cedar is naturally resistant to mold and mildew. You can leave them natural or stain them to get the look you want.

To increase the life of your cedar planters, make sure there is airflow between the bottom of the planter and the surface of your patio or deck. You can accomplish this by placing small blocks, bricks or terracotta legs designed specifically for this purpose underneath.

Also, instead of planting directly into the planter, you can find inserts made of various materials to fit inside the planters. This makes changing out plants or storing your planters during the winter much easier.
