Whether you just have one plant or a whole forest in your home, caring for houseplants is never a bad idea. They add a lot of liveliness and personality to a room and often help tie together different decorative elements, not only through the lush foliage but also through the planters they're potted in.

The Best Planters For Under $30

If you need to repot a plant, you may be discouraged by a trip to your local garden center. Planters that are equal parts decorative and functional tend to cost quite a lot, which Upgraded Home notes is because of the material used to construct them, as well as labor and transportation. Since most planters are made of ceramic and clay, a lot of time and money goes into sculpting, firing, packing, and shipping them, which is why the price tags tend to be so steep. While there's nothing wrong with a simple plastic pot, you shouldn't have to dent your wallet to have a decoratively appealing and sturdy planter. Keep reading for a list of cute and functional planters, all under $30.
