The positioning of your outdoor pots and planters makes a huge impact on your garden design. How to arrange pots and planters in a garden can either make or break the total “look” you are setting out to achieve.
Mosarte specialise in a stunning range of designer outdoor pots and planters suited to all sizes and styles of Sydney gardens. So here are our top tips for creating the “wow factor”.
How to arrange pots and planters
Consider the garden space you are designing. Do you have a long blank wall you are trying to soften? The regular spacing of identical pots in a row, with identical climate suitable plantings, creates repetition, harmony, and order.
Let’s take a look at how to arrange pots and planters with some of our favourite pot combinations to bring style & design to your garden.
Woodfired Stone Pots
Our Woodfired Stone Pots (pictured below) add elegance to every garden from contemporary to classic. The artisan hand made nature of the pots makes a stunning feature. Cluster them together OR include one our our modern white lightweight pots for a stunning contrast effect.
Lightweight pot clusters
Is it a small courtyard that would benefit from a single focal point? For maximum impact, you cannot go past our Lightweight Tubby Pot range (pictured below) potted with a single tree that compliments the surrounding architecture.
When considering how to arrange pots and planters, it helps to fill the space both vertically and horizontally, with decorative smaller pots & plants adding spectacular contrast.
Planter troughs for privacy screening
Are your pots serving a function? Pots, planters and troughs are not just there to look pretty! Often they act as a privacy screen or emphasise the edge of a particular zone in your outdoor space.
We have trough planters at Mosarte that are designed specifically for the purpose. When discussing how to arrange pots and planters, we often include the use of cleverly designed troughs that are perfectly positioned in a balcony garden or courtyard garden to create vertical greenery and privacy screening.

Taller troughs are available to create an instant screening effect.
Cluster pots in different sizes & shapes
Uniformity is not your thing? Why not consider a cluster of pots in varying shapes, sizes heights and plantings? Sticking to the same colour range of pots looks eclectic without looking mismatched.
The Lightweight Globe Planter (pictured below) comes in various heights, shapes, and widths, allowing the pots to be positioned in a tiered effect, maximising the visibility of foliage and creating interest.
