Planter Height 450mm x Width 400mm x Depth 400mm. Planted Height approx 750mm.  Planted Weight approx 80 kilos.  These Slate planters by Iota are made from solid slate with warm bronze and coppery coloured tones.  The planters are extremely strong and are designed to stand the test of time. The look is natural but smart and with its simple form the planters work equally well in both traditional and contemporary settings.   Slate has a naturally uneven surface with differences in tone and texture that mean each piece is individual. They make a statement at an entrance and particularly suit formal gardens and hard landscapes. Finished by hand.  These planters come with a 5 year frostproof guarantee.

The Buxus Sempervirens (also known as Box or Topiary) are a must for any garden and are a very hardy plant. Clip the plant to keep the required shape, this should be done before there is too much growth as it will be harder to reshape the plant.  Clipping should be done in the growing season, from May and no later than the end of August.  If you see the small pale yellow flowers in the early spring remove them from the plant by nipping them out. If the plant flowers too much it takes the nutrients from the leaves.  Box is a very forgiving plant and does well in most situations. Finally, if the plant is in full sunlight in a planter, turn the whole thing around once a fortnight to prevent the root system from scorching.
