About this deal

Depending on the age of the wooden barrel, the rusticity of its appearance can vary. Some look relatively new, whilst others have been darkened by age or show signs of rust on the metal rings holding them together. To some, this is aesthetically desirable, but others may prefer the structural reassurance of no visible rust. When buying partner items like this one, your contract of sale will be with our Range Plus Partner instead of us. Rustic is the modern half-barrel Planter for planting your garden; the barrel manufactures plastic and is a good shape novelty. The item is a floor-standing mounting type set of 2planters. After all, it is a drain screen removable weather-resistant decorative large planters. It is also called the plastic half wine barrel planters. One of the best things about using recycled barrels as planters, like this Temesso Wine Barrel Planter, is that you can choose which type of barrel you prefer. I think this is the ideal wooden half barrel planter, especially if you are a fan of authentic and original style – it’s just a matter of deciding whether you think the money is a stretch or not, but for my money it’s a valid investment compared to the other products in this review.

Large barrels (around 70 cm in diameter) are best for planting shrubs and trees . Smaller barrels, with a diameter of around 50 cm, are better suited to small gardens. They’re a great option for planting herbs and flowers. Drainage holes are important for growing plants as they stop water stagnating at the bottom of the barrel. If water pools at the bottom of a pot with no escape it can cause the plant’s roots to rot. It can also become a playground for bacteria which can transmit disease to the plant via the roots. I know what you’re thinking though – what even is a half barrel planter, and which one should I choose? Do not fear, we have selected the best half barrel planters on the UK market, to make choosing the perfect planter a walk in the park for you. What is a half barrel planter?In other words, we say that plastic half barrel planter is the ready planting pots for planting your favourite flower, leaf tree, and vegetable in the indoor and outdoor garden and windows. However, if someone likes to make gardens with colourful flowers and design their garden, it is best to make gardening easy. Another issue with Barrel Creation’s planter is the fact that it does not come with a drainage hole. This means that the customer is responsible for drilling a hole into the bottom If they wish to grow plants in the barrel, so ensure that your household toolkit is fit with a drill before purchasing this product. Furthermore, like our other wooden contenders, this barrel is not waterproof, so don’t expect to be able to build a water feature or pond out of this product. If you’re looking to use your half barrel as a planter, you’ll need to make sure it has drainage holes. Most half barrel planters don’t come with pre-drilled drainage holes, regardless of whether they are made from wood or plastic.

The downside of wooden barrels is that the wood will require treating annually and they can be susceptible to rot. In terms of size, they can range from teeny tiny to extra-large, the latter of which we will be searching for today. It goes without saying that the bigger the planter, the more you can stuff into it, but another advantage of an extra-large planter is its increased durability. Extra-large planters tend to weigh more, therefore fare better in bad weather, and taking a look at the menacing grey clouds outside, I would hazard a guess that we’re in for a pretty stormy spring-summer time this year. Yikes. You have options with the Marko half barrel planter, primarily when it comes to the colour. Available in a dark burntwood design or a fresh ‘natural’ colour which is most similar to the colour of pine, I enjoy the aesthetic versatility of this product. Like the previous planter, the Marko half barrel measures 30cm x 38cm, so it’s not exactly the biggest half barrel planter on the market, but don’t let this put you off – there are many things to love about this planter.In addition to this, the base of the planter is totally watertight, with no holes drilled. This is good news for those of you who are after a half barrel planter to use as a water feature, but bad news for those who need drainage holes for planting. However, drilling your own drainage holes is hardly a lengthy or technical process, so this should not be a dealbreaker. Used to store Scottish whiskey in a previous life, this cask has plenty of character and history tied up with it, giving it a bit more life than a plastic replica model; however, there are some downsides to this as well. If you have a small garden, or want to use the planter inside, you should carefully measure how much space you have available. It seems that particularly wooden planters, that are upcycled from real barrels, are often larger than customers expect. The ‘copper’ option uses warmer tones, fitting in with oranges and browns in the garden, whilst the ‘pewter’ model works well with cooler tones like stonework and gravel. Of course, neither planter is actually made from genuine metal, and is instead constructed from realistically-moulded plastic. Measuring approximately 70 cm in diameter and 40 cm tall, this barrel has one of the largest capacities on this list at 100 L. As a result, it’s large enough to plant larger bushes in, such as hydrangeas and roses.

Larger barrels, with a diameter of approximately 70 cm, are perfect for shrubs and small trees. Smaller barrels, with a diameter of approximately 50 cm, can be used for herb gardens and flower beds.

Prepare to have your mind blown. A half barrel planter is half a barrel used as a planter. I know, I know – who would have thought it? The idea is that you fill the half barrel with soil and then plant whatever your heart desires in the barrel, for a super rustic and charming garden decoration. However, the opportunities are endless with half barrel planters and they can also be used as water features, mini ponds, storage units, or essentially whatever else you can think of. There’s nothing better than a versatile garden feature. To avoid buying new plastic products, I recommend choosing a plastic barrel made from recycled materials . These offer a good compromise between respecting the environment and maintaining the practical qualities of plastic. They are very lightweight (generally weighing around 1 – 2 kg) and require no maintenance. Plus, if the plastic used is UV-resistant then the barrel should not fade in the sunlight and will maintain its colour over the years. We think it's fitting that Coopers of Stortford are offering our own set of four, half barrel planters. Watertight half oak barrels that may be used for ponds and water features. Shallow barrel sections are also available.

These barrels are watertight and can be used as small ponds and water features, or they can be used as planters. Much like with wooden barrels, if using as a planter you will likely need to drill holes in the base for drainage – they don’t tend to come pre-drilled. Plastic barrel planting is nothing, it is the straightforward process of gardening, and for planting your favourite flower, you collect some new plastic barrels. You clean and then half barrels it and place the perfect place in your garden or front house of the yard. In terms of appearance, this barrel is the closest that you will come to the real deal, as the company uses real whiskey barrels to create their products. Each one is unique, rustic and super sturdy, and some customers have even reported a slight whiskey smell coming from the barrels, which I think is wonderful.Give your plants a classic and vintage finish with this wonderful Oakwood Effect Barrel Planter. The rustic wooden finish coupled with the classic brown colour offers a classic piece to support all your favourite plants and flowers. In addition, the plastic planter provides the same effect as wood but is much more durable. Firstly, it’s a lot heavier than a plastic barrel planter, weighing approximately 25 kg. It also doesn’t seem to have been treated with any specific protection against the outdoors, meaning that a bit more maintenance is required as well.
