Artificial patio planters

Styling your garden with faux greenery used to be frowned upon due to its shiny plastic appearance, but this is no longer the case. Crafting techniques have come a long way since then, which means artificial flowers are now made from high-quality fabrics and realistic flexible plastics, making them almost identical to real flowers.

Our patio tubs are made from quality, strong materials including polyethylene plastic and silk. Each material has its own purpose in making the flowers and foliage look just like the real thing.

Wide range

Using faux patio tubs makes styling your garden a breeze and each patio tub is designed for outside use based on typical UK weather conditions.

The most popular flowers have been recreated as artificial alternatives, so you’re sure to find your favourites among our range of faux flower tubs. If you ever change the style of your home you can simply store your patio tubs away and when you’re ready to bring them out again, they’ll still look as good as they did when you left them.

Price

Growing real flowers can often be more expensive in the long run compared to artificial flowers. With real plants, you need to pay for feeding, repotting and potentially replacing your flowers every year. Instead, the one-time cost of artificial outdoor flowers might be a little more expensive at first, but you’ll never need to spend time and money replacing your patio tubs or carrying out any ongoing maintenance.

Allergies & toxins

A hay fever free garden is a clear advantage of artificial patio tubs. You never need to worry about our faux alternatives posing a risk to pets or small children. For more reasons to choose artificial, visit our blog.

Our range of stunning faux patio tubs features a plastic terracotta style planter, and are packed with premium foliage and flowers.

We add ballast to the pot for added weight and stability which prevents them from blowing over in the wind. Then, we glue a layer of dry flower oasis into the pot and glue the flowers and foliage into the oasis which is topped with a layer of artificial moss for added authenticity.

Put the watering can away! There's no need to feed, deadhead or water your new plant. Our only top tips are:

1. Spray with a UV spray from time to time
2. Rotate it from time to time to ensure any weathering is gradual
3. Move it during extreme weather (especially heatwaves)

For more advice, read our guide on how to protect artificial plants from extreme weather.

The foliage and flower spikes are glued into the core of their pot, but they can be removed with a little bit of force. We don't recommend this as the flowers might get damaged and it's irreversible. You also won't be able to return them to us.
