Planter Boxes

Planter Boxes are special gardening objects purchased from the Dryad for each. Herbs can be planted in them just like Clay Pots: Herbs growing in planter boxes are harvested only by using a pickaxe or Staff of Regrowth on them, and nearby swinging tools will not accidentally break them. Unlike Clay Pots, planter boxes are placed and act like platforms: They do not require support beneath them and they can be walked on, but pressing will let a player fall through them.

Although the various planter boxes have different seed names and matching appearances, the differences are purely cosmetic: Any herb seeds can grow in any planter box. Depending on the evil biome of the world, the Dryad will sell a Deathweed Planter Box showing either Corrupt grass or Crimson grass.

Some players use Planter Boxes as an alternative to platforms.
