Rattan & Wicker Pots
Wicker plant pots and rattan planters for softness and texture - the pots that make a room feel relaxed instead of arranged.
A small texture-led range. These are cover pots, not planters – keep the plant in its nursery pot inside. More woven and natural finishes sit in hanging pots and indoor plant pots.
Are wicker plant pots waterproof?
Wicker and rattan planters are almost always cover pots rather than waterproof containers. Keep the plant in its plastic nursery pot, water it over the sink, and return it once it has finished draining. Used that way, seagrass and rattan baskets add texture indoors and last for years.
- Treat wicker and rattan as cover pots
- Water the nursery pot at the sink, not in the basket
- Add a plastic liner if you want extra protection
- Seagrass and jute soften hard modern rooms
About our rattan & wicker pots
Every room needs something that is not hard and shiny, and that is exactly the job wicker plant pots do. Woven textures soften a space instantly - a monstera in a rattan basket looks relaxed and at home, where the same plant in glossy ceramic can feel a bit showroom. Our plant pots rattan collection covers woven baskets for floor-standing plants, smaller wicker cover pots for shelves, and straw plant pots with a lighter, sunnier feel that suits bedrooms and reading corners. They all work as cover pots: keep your plant in its plastic nursery pot, sit it inside (a saucer tucked in the base catches any drips), and lift it out for watering. Being feather-light, they are the easiest big pots in the house to move, and the most forgiving to toes. Free UK delivery over £20, dispatched within 48 hours, money-back guarantee included.
Rattan & Wicker Pots - FAQs
How do I stop water damaging a wicker pot?
Tuck a plastic saucer or liner in the base and keep the plant in its nursery pot. Water at the sink, drain, then return - the weave never gets wet.
Are rattan pots strong enough for big plants?
Yes - woven baskets take floor-standing plants with ease because the nursery pot inside carries the compost weight. The basket just has to look good, which it manages.
Can wicker pots go outside?
They are happiest indoors or under cover. A sheltered porch in summer is fine, but rain and frost will shorten a natural weave's life considerably.
