Lovely for alfresco dining to have your favourite plant or even fragranced herb as a table centrepiece and to eat by candlelight.

Pop in the zinc plant pot your favourite lavender or perennial (Geranium Roxanne shown here), place 4 candles on the candle spikes, light the candles, open the wine and enjoy…

The planter holder has a zinc pot which does not have drainage holes and makes it ideal for table-top use. The 4 candle spikes have drip collectors. We suggest using good quality taper candles or small pillar candles.

The internal pot size is 17cm x 21cm x 21cm, the width of 36cms includes the candle holders.

Perfect for table settings at informal weddings and parties.
