36 Inch Planters

(33 products)

Every fiberglass planter here offers a 36 inch size. On most of them that 36 inches is the length of a trough; on others it is the height of a column, and on one it is the diameter across the top. Each product page states which, in full, so you can match the number to the dimension you are actually measuring.

Which 36 inches are you measuring?

People search for a planter by a single number far more often than by a shape, and the number usually comes from a space rather than from a catalogue: a 36 inch gap between a door and a window, a 36 inch bench to line up with, a 36 inch ceiling clearance. The problem is that a planter has three dimensions and the listing rarely says which one the headline number refers to.

So this collection is organised around the number rather than the form, and the products in it divide roughly three ways. On most, 36 inches is the length of a rectangular trough, which is the dimension that matters when you are filling a run or lining up with a bench or a railing. On several it is the overall height, which is what matters at a doorway or against a window. On one it is the diameter across the widest point, which is the footprint measurement.

Every size table on every product page gives exterior length, depth and height separately, along with the interior opening, the interior depth and the packaged weight. If the 36 inches you care about is the height, read the height column rather than the size name.

Frequently asked questions

Is 36 inches the height or the width?

It depends on the planter, which is why this collection exists. On most of these it is the length of a trough; on several it is the overall height; on one it is the diameter. Every product page states all three exterior dimensions separately.

Do these all come in exactly 36 inches?

Each product here offers a size within half an inch of 36. Hand-finished planters vary slightly by nature, so treat the published figure as accurate to within a small tolerance rather than as a machined dimension.

What fits inside a 36 inch planter?

That depends on the interior rather than the exterior, because the wall thickness is included in the outside figure. Each size states its interior opening, interior depth and the nursery pots it takes.

Do 36 inch planters ship by ground or freight?

It varies by shape and weight rather than by that one dimension. A 36 inch trough is often freight while a 36 inch tall column may ship free by ground, and each product page states which applies to which size.
