Porch Planter Ideas and Inspiration

Potted plants are one of the easiest ways to dress up any space! Be sure to check out these gorgeous porch planter ideas and inspiration front and back porches before sprucing up your own outdoor space.

From simple terra cotta pots to dramatic concrete planters, there are no shortage of options when it comes to adding plants to your front or back porch. And it couldn’t be easier! Sun-loving flowers like pansies or simple foliage like ferns both can add beauty and elegance to your space.

I’ve pulled together some of my favorite ideas for adding potted plants to your porch (and you’ll notice, no two are exactly alike!) to help inspire you for an easy, welcoming update to your front or back stoop this spring and summer. There are galvanized buckets, hanging plants, creative containers, simple ceramics, wooden planters, and more… You can add color, texture, drama, height, tendrils, succulents, or just a touch of whimsy. Can you tell I’m a little obsessed right now with the versatility? 😉

As always, with landscaping, be sure to check what grows best in your climate and conditions. If you pay attention to how much shade or full sun you have, chances are, you’ll find plenty of options that will work for your space. Enjoy!
