planter box

Outdoor growing vessel

A planter box is a container for growing plants, typically rectangular and made of wood, metal, or plastic.

Unlike flowerpots, planter boxes are usually larger and designed to hold multiple plants or line a windowsill, deck, or balcony: We filled the planter boxes with herbs and tomatoes.
