My plants are important to me. Sure, I might not have the greenest thumb, but regardless, I want my plants to thrive. As a design-oriented person, caring for my plants doesn't just mean watering them — it means making sure they look good, too. And for that, I'll let you in on my best-kept secret: Walmart.
It might not be the first place that comes to mind when you're searching for something that oozes style, but thanks to the seemingly never-ending number of Walmart sales, you can often pick up something good for hardly anything. In terms of planters, the website has pages, and pages, and pages to choose from, whether you want a sleek ceramic style or something more classic like terracotta.
Of course, quality should always be something you considered when making a purchase, so when scouring the listings for you, I made sure to keep that in mind. Anything less than a 4-star rating — thank you, next.
So, below, I've shared nine of the best Walmart planters I found, that will have your plants dressed to the, well... nines. And for prices this low, you can switch and swap up your styles with the seasons! And with such eye-catching designs, you'll probably be more likely to remember to water your plants — speaking of which, I need to do that today...
