Saigon Tapered Round Planter in Matte Cobalt Blue

Tall Blue Planters

(38 products)

A tall planter in a saturated cobalt is a deliberate object: it draws the eye to a point and holds it. These are the fiberglass planters we carry that are offered in a tall size and finished in Matte Cobalt Blue, hand-finished to order.

Blue at height is a focal point, not a backdrop

Height and strong color compound each other. A tall cobalt column at the end of a walkway or beside a door is the thing people look at, which makes it useful where you want to mark a point rather than describe an edge. That is the opposite of what a tall neutral does, and it is worth being deliberate about: two of them either side of an entrance reads as intent, a row of six along a wall reads as a fence.

The finish carries the argument at this size. Matte Cobalt has no sheen, so a tall face holds one tone from top to bottom rather than picking up a highlight down one edge, and the color stays even where light rakes across it. It is an automotive-grade, UV-resistant paint system on a non-porous shell.

A planter appears here when it is offered in a tall size and in cobalt. Some of these families also come in short sizes, so read the size table rather than assuming every option is tall.

Frequently asked questions

Does a tall blue planter work in a group?

Better in pairs or singly than in long rows. A saturated color at height is a focal point, and repeating it along a wall competes with itself rather than making a line.

Will the cobalt fade in full sun?

It is an automotive-grade, UV-resistant paint system rather than pigment mixed into plastic, which is the version that fades fastest on a saturated color.

How tall do these get?

Height varies by family and every size is stated on its product page. The same cobalt is available across each model's full size range.

Will a tall planter tip?

It is light empty and heavy planted, and the soil holds it down. Place it before filling, and choose a wider base in an exposed position.
