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 Yucca Gloriosa (also known as the Adams Needle or the Spanish Needle) is a beautiful architectural plant which looks too good to survive frost but it is fully hardy. It is best grown in dry, well drained soil in full sun or in the shade. It has big, bold rosettes of wide, stiff leaves, each one ending in a sharp point. This should be taken into consideration when siting.  It is very tough and will grow almost anywhere but avoid excessively wet conditions in the winter.  Remove old flower spikes as soon as they fade, cutting as low down into the plant as possible. During the flowering season keep a look out for black aphids which can breed at an alarming rate.
