Need Very Large, Inexpensive Planter

Question

I want to plant two large sized holly trees in two planters that will be hidden. I am searching for planters online that are not expensive (no one will see the planters!) but are really large to hold a big tree.  What size?

Answer 1

I used to be able to go by constructions sites and pick up lumber they were getting rid of, then build some pretty large planters. I had some cost in what I bought to stain the lumber with for the large planters and the screws and nails but that was not that much really. Check the overall growth expected for your Holly trees and what the base typically ends up being. Then the planter size should be two feet bigger all around.
