When you set off for the garden centre, chances are your mind is full of the beautiful flora you are about to adorn your garden with. The pot often becomes an afterthought, carelessly chosen for the simple fact that it will fit your shrub. The pot, however, will be just as visible as the plant, and an ugly pot can end up being the focal point for all the wrong reasons. “Over the past decades, we’ve really seen people’s interest in the overall look of their outside spaces spike,” says sales manager Birgitte Hougaard. “They’re realising that plant boxes are an essential part of a garden’s overall aesthetic and atmosphere.”
