Outdoor or Indoor
If you plan to use your plant stand on a porch or other outdoor space, you’ll need to select one that is weather-resistant. Untreated, delicate wood, for example, won’t last long when exposed to the elements.
Single or Multi-Plant Stands
Plant shelves are a great option for displaying multiple plants or for incorporating them with other decorative items, but like hanging planters, they don’t work for taller indoor trees or bigger plants. If you have limited wall space or just want an alternative place to display your plants, opt for a multi-plant stand. Single stands are great if you want to make an impact with one impressive specimen or you’re trying to raise the plant so it’s visible behind a sofa or similar furniture item.
