A coco fiber planter is described. The planter includes a coco fiber liner having a barrier liner integrated at the base of the coco fiber liner and a rigid outer shell having a plurality of openings. The planter minimizes or prevents water leakage from the planter while also minimizing or preventing the degradation or deformation of the coco fiber liner that often occurs after coco fiber liners are exposed to water. In addition, the planter can prevent or hide the discoloration of the coco fiber liner that can also occur when coco fiber material is exposed to water.
