Did you catch Tuesday night’s episode of Design Staron HGTV? Designer Kris Swift created this crazy cool DIY succulent planter which we fell head-over-heels for. Swift created the succulent planter from a wood stump using a drill, skill saw, and hammer and chisel to scoop out the wood holes for the succulents.

If DIY isn’t your thing, here are a few other options for succulent planters you can buy.

Natural looking

If you’re looking to stick with a natural theme in your garden decor, then this succulent stone planter is the ticket. The natural-looking faux stone planter has a unique texture and color that would look great in a garden surrounded by rocks.

Go vertical

One of the newest outdoor trends is to embrace vertical gardening. This living wall framed succulent planter is a great way to bring in green plants to a tiny patio space.

Silk succulent plants for the non-gardening

If you’d rather have a succulent planter that you don’t have to care for, consider getting a realistic succulent silk plant.  The metal tin planter is a nice contrast to the light green succulent shade.

Succulents are super easy to maintain. Simple spray with water a few times a month once the soil gets completely dry and avoid over watering.
