Planter + Bench

Mixing two different garden elements together, in this case a bench and planter, make for refreshing design when done well. I have not seen this item in person which is always a bit dangerous, (I have been burnt before on poor quality furniture that looked great in the photos) but this looks like a fun garden bench. The planters seem a bit too small for boxwood's long term survival in the garden and depending on the location maybe through the winter, but I could easily see annuals or perennials working as well. As for the small table, I think the grass needs more soil to survive (The current photo is computer generated), but I like the idea. I always thought it would be fun to do something like this to create a vegetated pool table. I found these items at MadinDesign.
