This summer, we're choosing a classic, unobtrusive color—that would be white, or perhaps the palest of grays—for patio pots and planters. If you use a monochromatic color scheme, you can mix and match size, styles, and materials without looking mismatched. And a white backdrop will focus attention on the plants that produced all that beautiful green foliage.
Here are 10 white patio pots and planters we're currently coveting:
