Try typing 'big planter pots' into google IMAGES. Just click on what takes your fancy. There are some plain black ones with handles (mind your back) in a huge range of sizes at reasonable prices.

I agree Bamboo, thats how I find everything lol, its much easier and quicker to look at the images first.

Good idea :-)

Hi, I sign up to the ACHIA email alerts they have a new sale every day and today they have outdoor pots on there at very good prices, if you google ACHIA and then become a member (its free) you can view them on there. These are genuine savings as I got some bedlinen on there which was £150 in House of Fraser from them I paid £42 for the exact same.

Thanks for the heads up :-) ill go check it out

For what you described, I recommend Lechuza pots.

Lechuza pots look lovely
