We have some large weathered (cor-ten) steel planters that work. Same size/shape can be found with various finished (black, white, whatever).
With any planter, the key is drainage/watering - if they fill with water, the roots can rot. I had to drill extra holes in ours. And soil quality (especially into subsequent seasons).
Our biggest problem with the planters is deer. They eat just about anything, so I can't grow much in the yard. We have mid-size pots and small troughs on the raised deck for tomatoes and peppers and herbs.
