    it is such a spectacular piece, your urn needs a name! Like Bertha, or Henrietta or whatever suits your fancy. She has a personality of her own so she definitely can't live her life being called "the huge urn."

      Name of new urn: “Herway” as a last name, thus it can be called “Urn Herway”.

    I LOVE it. It’s simple, clean, and classic. It’s beautiful on its own, but the plants are really going to shine without any busyness to distract. I can’t wait to see it all planted up.

    I just want to say thank you for sharing your experience with me and others. I retired at the beginning of Covid and spent a lot of time learning to bake better And became an accidental gardener last summer when my daughter gave me plants because suddenly she was moving to California for the summer.
    This year I am focusing on flowers and some vegetables but I have grown at least five or six times more than I need over the last few months. I’ll be sharing with friends family and neighbors. My way of giving back this first year of retirement. 🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷

    It’s a beauty! Love the smooth, clean lines. Detailed enough but not too ornate. You probably struggled on that decision and I think, it’s perfect. It will be exciting too see it planted up each year and I bet the lights on it in winter will be spectacular.

But I purchased it at a nursery and it was delivered and setup. The nursery told me to put 3/4 full of peat moss or line the inside with bublewrap to kept from freezing and cracking. But
    I also put a cover over it in the winter. I love it you made a perfect choice. You will ave to buy an acre of dirt to fill that lol. Happy gardening. I'm in zone 6.
