These Self-Watering Teak Planters ($159) are built to last a lifetime. They are made of sustainably harvested teak wood, which is legendary for its strength, durability and natural weather resistance. They also feature a dual-action self-watering system, a self-contained water reservoir and high-quality construction details like tongue-and-groove joinery, dovetailed corners and stainless steel hardware.

Not only will your deck or patio look nice with an eco-friendly wooden touch, compared to the typical tacky plastic faux terra cotta planters, your plants will also be happy to get the water they regularly need. Come on, you just know you'll forget. (via The Green Head)
