Gabion Planter with Different Shapes
There are different shapes of gabion planters; square, round, rectangular and etc. For big garden gabion planters, there are two baskets, which are inner and outer layers. The inner basket is better be round or square so that your plants will be suitable for it. In addition, these gabion structures are generally galvanized steel wire, which enables your gabion planter to be more stable. Furthermore, galvanized steel wires are more durable for outdoor places.
                                             
                                                         










Landscaping Materials for Gabion Planter
When it comes to the landscaping materials for gabion planters, you can use the beach pebbles, river rocks, and any other smooth unpolished stones. Also, you can use different materials (like pinecones and wooden blocks) to fill up the gabion’s outer basket. Since the gabion planters will be heavy after you filled the outer basket with stones, it will be better to fill the inner basket with lightweight materials. Thus, you can move them easily.

                                                                 


Mini Gabion Planters
Apart from the big ones, you can create a mini gabion planter with the same materials (small wire structure and small size stones). You can use these beautiful planters for both indoor and outdoor places. Of course, you can make the structure as your own and as you wish. Furthermore, the holes on the gabion planter (mini or big ones) will help your plant breathe and make the drainage working well.
