The French themselves mostly refer to tabletop "planter" versions of such receptacles as cachepots ("hide-pots").
The French tend to use jardinière for larger outdoor containers for plants, and for raised beds in gardens in some sort of isolated frame, such as a stone wall, especially growing vegetables and herbs.
In the sense in English jardinières, often without the accent, are most often made in pottery, but may be in metal, glass, plastic or wood.
In cookery, another French meaning, a dish that is cooked or served with a mixture of spring vegetables, such as peas, carrots, and green beans, is also used.
"[1]In French, it is also a common name for the golden ground beetle, which attacks pests in kitchen gardens.
