This is the whole range, from a single manufacturer. Everything here is fiberglass composite, so the choice is not about material. It is about proportion, setting, and how the piece will be delivered and installed. The sections below are the questions worth settling before you pick a model.
How the range divides
The other collections are views of this same catalogue rather than separate inventories, so most planters appear in several of them. Pick the one that matches the question you are asking.
By material and maker: Outdoor Fiberglass Planters holds the whole range, and Jay Scotts Planters is the same set seen by manufacturer.
By setting: Commercial and Hospitality Planters covers the models specified most often for lobbies, restaurants and public frontage. Rooftop and Pool Deck Planters covers the models suited to terraces and decks, where weight and wind matter more than they do at ground level.
By proportion: Large Outdoor Planters holds the pieces that set the scale of a space. Tall Outdoor Planters holds the models that carry height. Tall Privacy Planters is the narrowest cut, the long rectangular boxes deep enough to plant a screen rather than a specimen. Rectangular and Trough Planters holds the straight-sided forms.
Choosing by size
Heights run from 7 inches to 43. Lengths run from 7 inches to 100. Most models come in more than one size, so choosing a model and choosing a size are two separate decisions, and the second one usually matters more.
For every size we publish three figures: the exterior dimensions, the interior opening, and the nursery pot the opening accepts. Exterior decides whether the planter fits the space, the doorway and the lift. Interior is always smaller, because the wall has thickness. The nursery pot figure is the one to use if you are dropping an existing plant straight in rather than planting into soil.
If you are sizing a scheme from scratch, the planter size calculator works from the plant outward rather than from the space inward.
Choosing by shape
Bodies are either rectangular or round. Within rectangular sit the straight boxes, the corner pieces that turn a 90 degree return, the cubes and the low troughs. Within round sit the tapered pots, the bowls, the cylinders and a few sculptural one-offs.
Rectangular bodies dominate, with an unusually large group of corner pieces alongside them. A corner planter solves a specific problem: it continues a planting line around a balcony or terrace return without leaving a triangular gap or overhanging the edge.
What this catalogue does not include
It is worth being direct about what is not here, because it saves a search.
There is no concrete, stone, terracotta or metal. Everything is fiberglass composite. That is a deliberate range decision rather than a gap we are working to fill.
There are no self-watering or reservoir systems. Drainage is drilled on request and the planter is otherwise a plain vessel, which is what makes liner-based and drop-in schemes straightforward.
There are no custom sizes and no custom colours. The published sizes and finishes are the whole of what can be ordered.
Every model comes from one manufacturer, so this catalogue is not a cross-brand comparison. If you are weighing fiberglass against other materials rather than choosing between planters, the planter material guide is the more useful page.
Finishes
Most models come in twenty finishes across matte, satin, gloss and metallic. A few come in nineteen or seventeen. The finish is an automotive-grade, UV-resistant paint system applied to order, which is what carries the colour through sun and weather.
Matte hides dust and fingerprints best and is the usual choice for high-traffic commercial settings. Gloss reads as more decorative and shows more. Metallic changes character with the light, so it behaves differently across the day than a flat swatch suggests.
Delivery, drainage and returns
These are made to order rather than picked from stock, so allow two to ten business days of production before shipping. Standard sizes ship free by ground within the contiguous United States. Larger units ship by freight at a flat 495 dollars, free on orders over 2,000 dollars. Each product page states which mode applies to each individual size, because the boundary falls between sizes of the same model rather than between models.
The split between ground and freight is close to even across the range, and worth checking on the size you actually want rather than assuming from the model.
Drainage is drilled free of charge on request. It is not drilled by default, because interior installations and liner-based schemes often need the base intact. A drilled planter is final sale, so it is a decision to make before ordering rather than after.
Ground orders can be returned within 30 days, subject to a restocking fee and return shipping. Freight orders are final sale except in the case of defect or damage.
