What can you plant in a concrete urn?
1 Answer

You can plant a variety of things in a concrete urn. Succulents can grow especially well in concrete planters because they prefer alkaline soil. Rosemary, thyme, leeks, peas, marjoram, borage, lavender, lily of the valley, viper’s bugloss and California poppies may also thrive in concrete urns. However, check your USDA plant hardiness zone before placing plants outdoors in a concrete planter. Find a collection of urn planters on 1stDibs.
