Showcasing the Lima Tapered Square Planter

Our Lima square-mouth planter’s curved, tapered shape fits well into traditional and transitional design schemes. This eye-catching planter features a wide mouth that gently curves to a narrower base. The effect brings a sleek twist to traditional rounded planters, complementing transitional design schemes or adding an unexpected twist to contemporary or traditional decor. This elegant planter works well in gardens, homes, or corporate locations.

The 12-inch model fits easily on small accent tables or the corner of a wide deck railing, while our 16-inch planter size works well on shelves or tables that will benefit from a substantial design element or group several together to make an impact in a larger space. The medium-sized 20-inch Lima tapered square planter pot is a great size for framing doorways or anchoring the ends of a low-profile sofa. The 24-inch Lima is an excellent choice for areas needing larger design elements, like expanses of wall or in place of end tables.

Versatile and sophisticated, the Lima tapered square planter is one of our best sellers and can be adapted to a variety of indoor or outdoor uses. Available in 40+ style-forward, hand-painted hues in both matte and glossy finishes, the Lima is easy to clean and will hold up to outdoor elements without cracking or discoloring, making the Lima planter a smart investment and a great choice for use indoors or out.

Picture a stylish, square planter by your front door or brightening up a sunny rooftop lounge. Our Lima Tapered Square Planter has clean lines and a shape that feels modern and balanced - wide at the top and narrower at the base for a slim, stylish look. 

It fits in just about anywhere, whether you’re decorating an entryway, balcony, courtyard, or business. This lightweight fiberglass planter is made to look great and last, both indoors and out.

Find the Right Size Fit

The Lima square tapered planter comes in five versatile sizes, each one suited for specific styling moments:

• 12-inch square planter - The small but mighty option. Tuck it onto apartment balconies, outside shop windows, or at the end of a hallway. It’s compact but never boring.
• 16-inch square planter - A versatile mid-size pick. Looks great next to a nightstand, beside the fireplace, or lining up along a balcony. Ideal for snake plants, peace lilies, or aloe.
• 20-inch square planter - That "just right" size for so many setups. Picture it next to accent chairs, on stair landings, or adding charm to a small patio.
• 24-inch square planter - Spacious and striking. Use it to frame your front entrance, or add symmetry to a poolside layout. Think bird-of-paradise, dwarf citrus, or a big cluster of ferns.
• 30-inch square planter - This one belongs at grand entrances, on hotel terraces, or beside wide staircases. Pair with statement plants like Italian cypress, palms, or mature fiddle-leaf figs.

Tip: The tall tapered square planter shape naturally draws the eye upward, so it's perfect when you're after vertical impact.

Built to Last, Designed to Impress

It looks like stone but it’s lighter than you'd expect. The Lima modern fiberglass tapered planter is made of high-quality fiberglass known for being strong, weather-resistant, and surprisingly lightweight. You can move it around without help, but it will still stand up to heat, cold, rain, and everyday wear.

The softly tapered profile and smooth matte finish make it easy to fit into modern, coastal, or industrial spaces. And since this planter comes with the option of drainage holes, you can style it indoors or outdoors, no problem.

Also, we back it with a three-year warranty, so you can plant with confidence.

Get Creative with Color and Contrast

The right color helps set the tone of your whole space. Whether you’re looking for something bold or neutral, the Lima offers options that work indoors or out:

• Black tapered planter - Sophisticated and bold. Looks sharp against pale walls or light wood, especially when filled with bright green foliage or pale succulents.
• White tapered planter - Clean and classic. A go-to for coastal homes, white brick facades, or bright sunrooms. Try pairing it with lavender, variegated foliage, or sculptural rubber trees.
• Gray square planter - The all-rounder. Works perfectly on concrete patios, balconies with steel railings, or next to cedar siding. Fill it with eucalyptus, silver-leaf plants, or soft greens.

Whatever finish you choose, Lima’s vertical fluting catches light beautifully, adding texture and depth even in neutral color schemes.

Pick the Right Plants for the Perfect Match

Want to get the most out of your Lima tapered planter box? Choose plants that match both the size of your pot and the lighting conditions of your space:

• 12" & 16" - Great for compact picks like snake plants, ZZ plants, trailing pothos, or small peace lilies.
• 20" - A solid choice for medium-height plants like rubber trees, lush ferns, or even a variety of herbs for outdoor setups.
• 24" & 30" - This tall planter is best for larger, eye-catching plants, such as fiddle-leaf figs, palms, dracaena, or slender Italian cypress.

For full-sun setups, try drought-friendly options like agave or blue fescue. And if you’re dealing with low-light entryways, choose peace lilies or calathea.

Tip: Column-style plants like cypress or dracaena highlight Lima’s tall, elegant shape. Want to soften the edges? Add a trailing plant like creeping Jenny or ivy.

Simple Care All Year Round

The Lima is made to last without making you work for it. Just follow these quick, easy steps to keep it looking great:

• Clean it up - Just wipe it down with mild soap and water. No special products, scrubbing, or harsh chemicals needed.
• Set up drainage - Choose a version with or without pre-drilled holes, depending on whether it’s going inside or outside.
• Prep for winter - If you’re in a freeze-thaw zone, simply raise the planter slightly off the ground so water doesn’t pool underneath.
• UV-protected finish - The pigment is built to resist sun damage, so you won’t have to deal with fading or repainting.
