Backyard & Patio Pick

String Light Pole Planter Stand

An 18 inch weatherproof wood box with a 10 ft steel pole seated into a base plate inside it, so the lights have something to hang from.

What you're getting

  • The eighteen inch wood box is deep enough for real plants, not just decorative fluff, and the built-in base anchors the pole so wind will not tip it.
  • A ten foot pole gives lights enough height to span a patio table without stooping, and bistro lights sag naturally to frame the seating.
  • The whole thing is one piece, so there is no assembly beyond filling the box with soil.

Why we picked it

A string light pole planter does two things most patios need and usually buy separately: a planter for color and a pole for light. Combined, they take one corner, not two.
