Akin’s carries an extensive selection of quality pottery in a variety of sizes, colors and styles.
With choices from classic to contemporary, rustic to refined, you’ll find the perfect container for outdoors or indoors here.
Container Creations
Our creative staffers keep a supply of large and small already-planted mixed containers available for those who like to leave the potting to the pros.
If you don’t see something you like, choose a container and request the plants to fill it or leave it up to us. You can even bring your own container from home and we’ll plant it for you.
Statuary
Our huge statuary collection features everything from whimsical bunnies to classic bird baths to Southern icons, like pelicans and herons, as well as benches and unique angel and St. Francis figures. Small accent or large focal point -- we have the perfect piece.
