Botany / gardening
English term or phrase: planter
My idea is to take away the planter area next to the terace and construct a new terrace wall whilst retaining a planter around the edge.

Planters normalmente son macetas o maceteros, pero en este caso creo que se refiere a una alineación de plantas que forman una línea divisoria.
Gracias por adelantado.
