    Hey, looking for this kind of planter:

    But lower profile and larger around 150cm x 50cm.

    Are they available anywhere in Ireland?

    I don't know where you are located. If you are nearby a Homebase they might have something like these. I think that I remember seeing something like them in Fonthill at one stage. But I may be mistaken.....

    I doubt they are ceramic. I think you can really just go round garden centres and see what they have - good time of year to be looking for them, likely on sale.

    Perhaps would help to specify what I want to do.

    Basically I have a big garden and I would like to avoid digging up ground as it's rental house.

    I want to get about 6 or 7 of these planters and plant black bamboo to make a dense wall like corridors in my garden I think it would look great.

    So they need to be heavy to hold the plant.

    Those planters are made of some kind of plastic or GRP. I'm not sure if they would stay upright with a high-windage plant like bamboo, but you could put in plenty of stones as ballast.
