Looking for a 90 cm high planter that instantly adds more depth and character to your garden or terrace? A planter of this height offers an impressive presence without the extreme scale of 100 cm models. At Doika, you will find a wide selection of 90 cm high planters made from durable materials that last for years, both indoors and outdoors.
What is a 90 cm high planter?
A 90 cm high planter is a flower pot with a height of approximately 90 centimetres, suitable for medium to large planting such as ornamental grasses, shrubs, or small trees. Thanks to this height, a 90 cm high flower pot provides sufficient space for root growth while remaining compact enough for most gardens and terraces. A 90 cm high planter box is used both indoors and outdoors and often serves as a structural anchor point in the layout.

Material and quality
A 90 cm high planter is often made from Grade A corten steel, polyester, aluminium, or wood, materials known for their strength and weather resistance. Corten steel models develop a natural rust layer that protects against further corrosion, while polyester models are lightweight and resistant to frost, rain, and UV radiation. Aluminium models offer a lightweight yet highly durable option with a sleek, modern finish that does not rust. Wooden models provide a warm, natural look and are available in various wood types suitable for long-term outdoor use. Many models feature a folded top edge for extra strength and internal reinforcement ribs to prevent deformation. Some versions are available with legs or wheels for easier placement and flexible use.
Sizes and variants
90 cm high planters are available in various shapes and versions, from long rectangular to rectangular designs, and in different materials such as corten steel and polyester. In addition to the height of 90 cm, intermediate and alternative sizes are also available, so you can choose a planter that fits the available space precisely. Models are available with or without a base, with or without drainage holes, and with or without legs or wheels. There is also a wide choice of colours and finishes, from the natural rust colour of corten steel to various RAL colours for polyester versions.

Common mistakes
- Not adding a drainage layer, causing water to remain and roots to rot
- Compacting the soil, which can damage the walls of the planter

- Placing the pot on a surface that cannot support the weight
- Choosing the wrong size without considering the final size of the plant
- Placing models with wheels on a sloped surface without securing them
- Placing it too close to a wall, making maintenance at the back difficult
Installation and maintenance
- Place the pot on a flat, stable surface that can support the weight
- When using without a base, add a drainage layer of approximately 10 cm of gravel
- Use water-permeable root barrier fabric that runs up along the edges
