HOW TO CHOOSE URBAN PLANTERS FOR YOUR PUBLIC SPACES?
Nature in the city is one of the major challenges of urban planning. At Cyria, we believe it is a vital issue! And we are not the only ones who think so!
These beliefs led us to contribute to the greening of cities year after year, especially by creating a wide range of planters designed for growing plants in urban environments. But how do you choose your design planter?

CHOOSE AN URBAN PLANTER VOLUME SUITABLE FOR THE PLANT
Plants are far more than just their visible parts! Their root system needs to develop as much as their foliage, and to achieve this, it's crucial to grow them in a suitable tree container. To select the right one, you need to consider proportions. The plant should neither feel cramped nor drowned in too large a volume. Choose an urban planter with a solid base, a surface wide enough compared to its height and the mass of your planting, ensuring stability. If not, you’ll need to secure it to the ground.
At Cyria, we offer a wide range of outdoor design planters in all sizes, including some of the largest volumes on the market. Our containers and tree boxes are designed to offer great flexibility for meeting the needs and constraints of each urban project.

2. OPT FOR A TREE BOX MADE FROM DURABLE MATERIALS
For use in urban spaces, it’s best to choose a planter made from strong materials! At Cyria, we use resistant steel for our urban flower boxes to withstand urban constraints: thermolacquered steel with Zalkyon® anti-corrosion treatment, Corten steel with its natural protective patina, and passivated and polished stainless steel. 100% recyclable, durable, and low-maintenance, these materials have been selected for their strength and longevity after extensive testing in our workshop.
Looking for a solid urban planter that will last despite the urban environment's challenges? You can trust our materials—they won't let you down!

3. TAKE CARE OF THE IRRIGATION OF YOUR URBAN FLOWER FURNITURE
Water management is the key to successful soilless plant cultivation in urban environments. Our BYOPLAN® care system ensures optimal plant development while reducing watering frequency, maintenance needs, and water consumption. Most of our tree boxes and planters can be equipped with the BYOPLAN® care system, check the technical sheet of your favorite product.
Choosing the right container is essential, but you must also choose the right plant species! Our orangery boxes are designed to accommodate a wide variety of plant species. But to be sure, the best way is to consult professionals. That's why we offer an option for a planter delivered with a planted tree box, substrate, and plant, along with expert advice to guide you toward the right species.
