• Specified by hospitality groups, hotels, restaurants, corporate campuses, and luxury residential developments across the US for tree, palm, and large-plant installations.
• Hand-laid commercial-grade fiberglass. UV-stable and frost-resistant. Holding up in desert sun, coastal salt air, and freeze-thaw climates for decades, not seasons. Lightweight relative to concrete or stone, dimensionally stable, and engineered to resist warping, cracking, and fading.
• Six sizes to mix and match, from 15" diameter accents up to a 44" diameter architectural focal point sized for mature specimen trees and full palms. The 15", 22", and 27" are accent sizes; tree-capable sizing starts at 33".
• Custom color match available to any Pantone or RAL code. A small per-color fee covers the matching process plus any spray-out approvals, in either Low Gloss or High Gloss — your choice.
• Optional pre-drilled drainage holes at no extra cost. Pick "no drainage" for indoor use or "pre-drilled" for outdoor.
• Standard nursery grow pot fit: Wannsee's tapered round interior accommodates a single grow pot sized to the bottom dimension (ANSI Z60.1) — useful for swap-in seasonal planting and commercial maintenance rotations. See the size table below.
• Specification documentation: spec sheet PDF with dimensions, weights, and finish options. Expanded CAD and BIM files are in development.

Sizes & Pricing

Finished to order in our US facility. Commercial-grade build. 3-year limited warranty.

Soil capacity shown is conservative — rounded up so a buyer ordering by our number always has enough. It reflects ~90% of full interior volume to leave room for a drainage layer and ~1" below the rim. Note: potting soil settles 10–15% after watering — order a little extra if you intend to fill to the rim. Filled weights assume saturated potting soil at ~10 lb/gal for load planning; actual weights vary with media density, moisture, and root ball. Bottom Dia is the outside diameter at the base — useful for sizing tray protection, base saucers, or planning narrow base clearance on stepped landings. Grow pot fit follows ANSI Z60.1 nursery-stock standards; the bottom interior is the binding constraint on a tapered form. Brand variance is typical — verify the specific container before order if it matters.

Ships in 1–2 weeks for any of our 40 standard finishes and custom color matches under PPM QuickShip. Spray-out samples and custom shapes run longer; details are in the Design Guidance tab.

Prices shown are standard retail. (Trade accounts are available) They include any of our 20 standard colors in Low Gloss or High Gloss (40 finish options). Custom color matching is available with a small per-color fee that covers the full matching process, including physical spray-out samples for approval before production. The fee covers the color in both gloss levels. Pre-drilled drainage holes are free if you need them.

Materials & Construction

• Material: hand-laid commercial-grade fiberglass with a reinforced base. The 44" Wannsee weighs about 53 lb empty; an equivalent concrete planter at the same scale runs several hundred pounds, so two people can move and place a Wannsee without equipment.
• Finish: multi-coat automotive-grade paint, hand-applied and clear-coated. UV-stable, frost-resistant, and rated for desert sun, coastal salt air, and freeze-thaw climates.
• Color range: 20 standard colors, each available in Low Gloss or High Gloss for 40 total finish options. Custom color matching to any Pantone or RAL code is available for a small per-color fee, covering both gloss levels. Works equally well for hotel brand standards, architectural specs, and matching residential trim. For brand colors held in other systems, convert to the nearest Pantone or RAL equivalent for the most accurate result.
• Construction: seamless one-piece round body. No seams or joints to fail, crack, or leak.
• Origin: a Jay Scotts silhouette — made and finished in the US by Pots Planters & More. We stock the base inventory in our US facility and finish each order to your color specification.
• Warranty: 3-year limited warranty against material and finish defects. Full warranty terms.

Round Fiberglass Tree Planter for Hotel Entries, Rooftops, and Commercial Landscapes

The Wannsee is a round fiberglass tree planter built for spec-grade installations where a single planter has to anchor a room or a courtyard — hotel entries, rooftop terraces, restaurant fronts, courtyards, and large commercial landscapes. Available in six sizes from 15 to 44 inches outer diameter, the tree-capable 33", 39", and 44" sizes accept specimen trees and full palms including olive, citrus, magnolia, fiddle-leaf, parlor palm, and kentia. The 44-inch size has a filled weight above 1,000 lb and requires structural review before rooftop, balcony, or elevated-deck installation.

Project Planning Notes

• Tree and palm sizing: tree-capable sizing starts at 33". As a rule of thumb, the 33" works for small-to-medium specimen trees and parlor or kentia palms; the 39" suits larger specimen trees, palms, and most commercial-scale plantings; the 44" is the strongest fit when the design calls for an extra large round planter for trees or full palms in commercial entries and lobbies. Match planter diameter to root ball plus 4–6" on each side for healthy long-term growth.
• Filled weight (load planning): see the Filled (est.) column in the size table above. Estimates use saturated potting soil at ~10 lb/gal for conservative load planning; the 39" lands near 869 lb filled and the 44" near 1,293 lb. For rooftop terraces, elevated decks, balconies, and interior office floors, confirm load capacity with your structural engineer or building manager before placement — the 44" crosses 1,000 lb filled and is a common point where load review is appropriate.
• Root ball planning: match planting opening to root ball plus space for backfill and irrigation. The 29", 35", and 40" openings on the three tree-capable sizes (33", 39", 44") accommodate most nursery-grown specimen trees and larger palms. Lighten the load by adding a layer of structural filler at the bottom of taller sizes before adding soil.
• Drainage decision: indoor use is typically "no drainage" with a saucer or basin under the root ball. Outdoor use should be "pre-drilled" to prevent water from pooling, freezing, or causing root rot. Both options are free; pick at order.
• Base footprint and placement: the tapered round form has a narrower base than top. See the Bottom Dia column in the size table for the actual base footprint — useful for sizing protective trays or saucers, planning stepped landings, or confirming clearance against railings, columns, and stair edges.
• Placement and access: the 39" and 44" sizes are wide. Confirm doorway, corridor, and elevator clearance to the install location before delivery, especially for hotel and rooftop projects.
• Round-form design uses: in pairs at an entry, the round form softens hard architecture and frames a doorway. In a single placement, it anchors a corner, lobby focal point, or rooftop sightline. In groups of three at varied sizes, it builds a graduated visual rhythm in lobbies, courtyards, and entry sequences.
• Custom color workflow: send us your Pantone or RAL code. We mix the match and produce physical spray-out samples for your approval. Once approved, production begins. Add roughly one week to standard lead time for the spray-out and approval cycle. A small per-color fee applies and covers all spray-outs needed to lock the match — the fee covers both Low Gloss and High Gloss versions of that color. If your brand color lives in another system, convert to the nearest Pantone or RAL equivalent before submitting; cross-system conversions from house-paint references are typically only 80% accurate and add significant time to the approval cycle.
• Lead time caveats: standard finishes ship in 1–2 weeks under our PPM QuickShip program. Custom Pantone or RAL color matches add about 1 week. Fully custom shapes and sizes are built to order on a project timeline we confirm with you at order. Bulk project orders (25+ units) ship on a confirmed schedule we set at order. We confirm exact dates in writing before you commit.
• Multi-unit finish consistency: for runs of 4+ units, request finish-consistency confirmation before production. Single-batch production keeps color, sheen, and texture matched across the order.
