Planter Box
A built-in planter makes plants look like they belong to the hardscape. Container planters placed alongside it never quite achieve that same sense of being designed in from the start.

Getting the Soil Volume and Drainage Right Matters.
Planter boxes that look great and grow healthy plants are built with the plant's needs in mind, not just the visual outcome. Adequate depth for root systems, proper drainage holes and aggregate layers, and wall thickness that insulates roots from heat — these details make the difference between planters that thrive and ones that cook plants in summer or waterlog them in winter. AJ Criss builds every planter box with horticulturally sound construction, not just aesthetic dimensions.
Structure for Your Garden. Identity for Your Yard.
Custom planter boxes bring definition and vertical dimension to outdoor spaces that would otherwise read as flat — framing a pool deck, anchoring the end of a retaining wall, stepping a garden down a slope, or creating green privacy along a fence line. Unlike container planters, built-in masonry planter boxes are permanent features that contribute to the structural composition of the yard and increase property value. AJ Criss designs planter boxes that work with the surrounding hardscape as a unified system, not as an add-on.
