A Tall Pot Built for Height
This Long Tom shape is designed for tall, upright planting schemes. The narrow profile draws the eye upward. It pairs well with lavender, box topiary, or trailing plants that cascade over the rim.
At 35kg, this pot holds its ground in windy corners. The cast stone construction gives it an aged, weathered finish straight from delivery. Over time, moss and lichen attach naturally to the textured surface.
Two Colour Options
Choose between Aged Cotswold for a warm, golden tone or Burnt Umber for a darker, richer finish. Both colours suit traditional and contemporary garden schemes.
Practical Details
Three large pot feet are included. These lift the pot off the ground to improve drainage and prevent waterlogging. The planting area measures 550mm deep by 360mm wide. That is enough room for a mature shrub or a mixed planting display.
