Haven't found much info on this. I'm about to pull the trigger on 3 of these for Patio Squad 
https://www.homedepot.com/p/Bloem-Veranda-Square-18-in-Black-Plastic-Deck-Box-Planter-57918/301861604
 

My palms are in a mix of upcycled grower pots, some grower pots, and Bloem Lucca. The Bloem are my favorite due to the removable saucers and the lips that make them easy to move. Plus they look nice. I did a search here for Bloem and literally every post was mine lol. Anyway - what do y'all like? What's y'alls favorite?

I used a bamboo fiber pot once, it decided to explode. Not sure what caused it

Looks like explosion from falling or being dropped

If its my favorite pot, why would i want to share it?

In all seriousness, my favorite pot is one that can hold soil with a plant in it.

It may surprise you that something that holds a strawberry plant might not hold the weight of a palm :floor:

 

I'm looking for prettier options than nursery pots and cheaper options than my beloved Bloem Lucca's

Lowes is not the place for you...

I bought some black plastic 1.75 gallon pots at Lowes today for almost $3 per pot. Ridiculous, but i had no other options lol

My dude 

I paid $9 for a single 7g nursery pot when in 2020 I could have got a grip of them for the same price. My beloved Bloem pots cost 4x what they did 2 years ago, assuming they're available. My cheap Target pots... Literally everything costs 4-5x what it did 2 years ago. It's keeping me from buying more palms/seedlings.

I hate how the prices for everything keeps going up. Doesnt seem to be slowing down either. The price for small Queens at Lowes has almost increased by $5 iirc

The only plants I've bought this year were a couple of little $12 aloes :rolleyes:

 

Tbf I don't have much more space, but that didn't stop me last year.
