Its distinctive raised period detailing gives the planter an architectural quality, with beautifully proportioned panelled sides and a circular central motif creating the appearance of a piece that might have been in the garden for generations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach planter is individually handmade from steel here in Herefordshire before being \u003cstrong\u003ehot-dip galvanised for excellent long-term protection against the elements\u003c\/strong\u003e. The newly galvanised surface is then treated with an aged patina, softening its initial brightness and creating the wonderfully characterful, time-worn finish that works so well amongst traditional stone, gravel, brick and established planting. The maker uses this same galvanised-and-aged finishing process across its Herefordshire-made ironwork. \u003cspan class=\"contents\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe generous proportions make The Bosbury particularly well suited to \u003cstrong\u003eJapanese maples, clipped yew, hydrangeas, bay and other specimen shrubs or small trees\u003c\/strong\u003e.
