I do like the replica (if that's the word), lead pots. They are light,
almost totally bomb proof against any elements, seem to suit most plants
and look good planted up. They certainly would be weather proof.

I fist saw them at Preston Bisset nurseries near Buckingham. However
they are in many good garden centres.
The nursery has a web site if you want to look at what i mean.
