Pots
I find that the quality of pots varies widely and some of the cheaper ones last no time at all - particularly when frost gets at them - so choose more expensive ones that last much longer. Those pictured here and in the Herbs post are all hand made in England by Whichford Pottery and have a 10 year guarantee. The pots are fairly red when new but do calm down in colour after a while. Last time I was there they were completing a large order for export to Japan so they must have something special.
