Unfortunately, the landscaper gardener chose them, so I'm not sure. Show the picture to your local nursery.

What Houzz contributors are saying:
Becky Harris added this to Ornamental Grasses in the Landscape
Another way to keep the wild shape of grasses in line is with planters. Here the planters and grasses are scaled so that they create a strong line and provide a screen that separates two outdoor rooms.
Debra Prinzing added this to Landscapes Make a Privacy Statement
Who wants a solid fence next to an entry door or a bedroom window? This soft, elegant solution is far preferable. A trio of Ali Baba–scale pots, each planted with a stunning ornamental grass, creates a kinder, gentler barrier with style.

8. Mass potted plants together. This solution is quick, inexpensive and portable. If you're planting from scratch, choose foliage that grows quickly and spreads lushly to create the most impact with the least effort.More:Bamboo Screens Make Your Garden Glow12 Great Fences and GatesFence It In
Annie Thornton added this to How to Get Your Prairie On
Why not give some pots the prairie look? You could seed the containers, but buying some nursery plants might be best for you, so you get a quicker bang for your buck. Another planting suggestion: Have fun and design one container with some little bluestem (Schizachyrium scoparium) underplanted with purple prairie clover or dwarf blazing star (Liatris cylindracea). You might need to bring the container into the garage or shed for winter so the roots don't freeze or dry out, especially if you live in zone 5 or a cooler climate.

5. Movable barrier. Tall potted plants in the right spot can help create a visual separation between a public space and a private one, helping an entrance feel more removed from a busy street. Plus, they can be a useful solution for renters or anyone who is unable to build a fence or more permanent barrier. Design tip: Choose hardworking evergreen plants or large-scale ornamental grasses, rather than flowers, to act as a moveable privacy hedge. Taller containers and dense foliage can also help with some noise abatement.
