Empoli terracotta lily pot

Empoli terracotta lily pot £29.99
It may have been the Victorians who started growing lilies in tall thin pots. Their unique shape meant that the bulbs could be planted deeply and grown on until they were ready to bloom, at which point they could easily be moved about to a prominent spot. Today, they come in different sizes and can be filled with whatever takes your fancy. Measurements: Medium 41cm high x 31cm diameter Large 53cm high x 42cm diameter We thin k these classic, unfussy designs work best in an English garden. Although the in spiration came from Tuscany, the pots have been made in Turkey. They are hand th rown (sometimes from 2 pieces of clay for the larger pots) by Argon and his son who are the 3rd and 4th generation of potters from the Izmir region on the Aege an coast. The clay from this area ages to a lovely patina, as the salts slowly l each to the surface. Each pot is fired to 1080 degrees C (to make it as frost proof as possible) and has an extra large drainage hole in the base.

Position: full sun or partial shade Soil: fertile, humus-rich, moist, well-drained soil Rate of growth: average Flowering period: June to August Hardiness: fully hardy The foliage of this recently introduced honeysuckle emerges purple in spring, but matures to a rich green, so by summer when the unscented cream and yellow flowers appear, it forms a lush, verdant backdrop.
