Before You Shop

First check out these starting considerations to determine which plant stand ideas work best for your houseplants, your design preferences, and space size:

What types of houseplants do you have?

You need to consider which type of plant stand will work the best for the kinds of houseplants you have. For example, larger houseplants may require a plant stand that has a higher weight capacity. Trailing houseplants may need taller stand designs to showcase the length of their foliage. Small succulents may require a scaled-down plant stand that will fit on shelves or countertops.

How many plants do you want to display?

Have one or two houseplants, or a whole room full? There are so many different plant stand designs for single plants or full house plant collections. We love indoor and outdoor plant stands in pedestal designs with a circular base to instantly elevate one plant. Stands with multiple tiers and shelving systems are great to display different plants at the same time.

Where do you want to put a plant stand?

There are a wide range of plant stand configurations, so you can find the one that works in a tight corner, on a kitchen counter, or as a statement piece for large spaces. Some even have weather-proof components for outdoor placement on patios, balconies, or porches.

Which plant stand material works best for you?

Plant stands are made of materials such as solid wood, metal, rattan/wicker, marble, stone/tile, and even mirrored glass. Materials like metal and solid wood provide an extra layer of strength and durability for showcasing large plants or multiple plants at a time. Rattan, stone, or tile gives a fun boho twist to plant displays, while marble or glass plant stands add a modern vibe to your space.

Best Basic Option

Biskra Round Corner Poplar Plant Stand

The Biskra plant stand showcases your plants while maintaining a relaxed, pared-back profile. Plant stands like this one give your houseplant or planter design the opportunity to stand out. It has three flared legs and a round base – all composed of strong solid wood. This enables the Biskra plant stand to accommodate up to 300 lbs on its 9"-wide surface. With this weight capacity, you can easily display a Monstera deliciosa, fiddle-leaf figs, or a parlor palm without fear of your stand falling over. Choose from nine colours including honey (pictured above), antique white, black cherry, mahogany, and more.

What Customers Say:

"Super classic and classy. Love this plant stand."

"Beautiful craftsmanship! I bought 2 and I LOVE them!"

"It’s exactly what I needed! It’s very sturdy and good quality."

Best Tiered Option

Fasching Square Multitiered Plant Stand

Have a large plant collection? Opt for a multitier plant stand like the Fasching square multitiered plant stand. This plant stand has three shelf tiers with a fourth tier at the top for small plants or succulents. Each tier can accommodate up to 25 lbs. of weight so you don't need to worry about having your Chinese money plant, philodendron, or indoor succulent garden on too flimsy of a shelf. The Fasching square plant stand includes both solid bamboo wood and manufactured wood to boost its strength and durability. This plant stand is much taller and more narrow than other multitiered varieties. It's 47.2" tall. This makes it ideal for housing a bunch of houseplants in a small room where taking advantage of vertical space is a must.

What Customers Say:

"It's a great size and works perfectly to get my plants up off the ground. Very sturdy."

"I actually have two of these plant stands and they work great for my plant collection."

"This has been the best plant stand and perfect for what I need! It’s sturdy, durable, and just the right size for my little succulent collection."

Best for Corners

Plant stands with corner configurations help fill bare corners in your home with greenery. The Shelly Triangular corner plant stand features a curved design and three shelf tiers so you can maximize your plant display. It's 23.5" tall, 24" wide, and 24" in depth, so you can easily fit it in the corner of your living room, dining room, or sunroom. Its right-angle configuration enables you to place it right up against a corner of the room without creating odd gaps or spacing. The bottom shelf can accommodate up to 22 lbs. of weight, while the middle shelf can accommodate 17.6 lbs., and the top shelf can accommodate 15.4 lbs.

Best for Display

Oquendo Round Multitiered Plant Stand

Showcase your succulent collection with a small plant stand like the Oquendo plant stand. It has three shelf tiers in a small-profile stand, which makes it perfect for a hallway entry table, kitchen counter, or kitchen island. You can also change up the configuration of this plant stand by moving the middle and bottom tiers to create a straight line or a triangle like the display picture above. At just 10" tall, you can also easily fit the Oquendo plant stand on a bookshelf or coffee table. Each tier is 7.25" wide to accommodate small planters with ease. The Oquendo plant stand comes in eight color options including black (pictured above), gold, silver, bronze, white, and more.

Best for Height

Roy Round Pedestal Plant Table

Tall plant stands allow you to display greenery while adding visual height to the room and providing small-space solutions thanks to their narrow profiles. The Roy Round Pedestal plant table has an adjustable base so you can change its height from 32" tall up to 48" tall – and that's without the addition of a houseplant. Its tempered glass top is 12" wide to accommodate a range of planter sizes, and it can hold up to 10 lbs. of weight. The Roy Round Pedestal's slim metal base makes it perfect for the bare corner behind your living room sectional.

What Customers Say:

"It doesn't take much space and can be used in narrow passages."

"Perfect size... I was looking for something for between my vanity and my freestanding bathtub. Not big or bulky, just sleek and simple."

"I like that the height is adjustable over a wide range."

Best Modern Look

Athena Triangular Multitiered Plant Stand

Modern plant stands like this one add a fresh contemporary look to your plant display, while its retro hairpin legs give a nod to mid-century modern design. The Athena Triangular Multitiered plant stand features a fun abstract shelving design with three tiers so you can display three houseplants at a time. The middle and top-most tier both measure 11.6" in width, while the lowest tier measures 12.8" in width. Each shelf can hold up to 4 lbs., so you can accommodate most small- or medium-size houseplants. However, you should also take into account the weight of the planter itself.

We recommend placing trailing houseplants on one of the top two tiers of this planter to showcase their foliage and reserving the bottom-most tier for succulents and other low-set plants. Choose between one of three finish options, including terrazzo-like white (pictured above), black marble look, or white marble look.

What Customers Say:

"Love this plant stand. Great size and cool modern look."

"This is so cute in our home! Love the modern vibe."

"It looks very contemporary, which was the look I wanted. It is very sturdy and easy for one person to build."
