Product Description
The Elho Algarve Cylindro Plastic Pot 48cm in Thyme Green combines timeless garden style with practical functionality, making it ideal for displaying larger plants outdoors. Part of the popular Algarve collection, this cylindrical outdoor plant pot features a decorative floral motif that adds a refined finishing touch while maintaining a clean, classic design.
