This is different use for one of our crates, combined with a willow frame it has been filled with sweet peas. It can be moved around the garden and will look spectacular wherever it ends up. More photos to follow when it’s in full bloom. This is where the square planter crate comes into it’s own.

As you know we love getting your feedback and your photos, here’s a selcetion of recent comments:
- Just a short email to say how please I was to receive such an unusual gift for our 30th Wedding Anniversary gift from our Daughter. I think you will be having a lot more orders your way as my friends are all really interested. Many Thanks.
- I had to write in to tell you what a brilliant company your are. I ordered a plantabox from you yesterday and it turned up this morning. That is good going. Thank you so much. I will be ordering again from you very soon.
- Just thought I’d share this photo with you. I purchased this anniversary crate for my parents Ruby wedding anniversary in April 2011 and one year on it’s still going strong! It has pride of place at the front of their house for all visitors… even the postman … to see and admire.
- Thank you Plantabox – supplied the gorgeous crate for my wedding in December – personalised and used to hold our gifts and cards – was brilliant and is now being used to store all of my beautiful wedding bits and pieces. I am now looking forward to receiving my free mini crate for sending you some pictures – brilliant, can’t recommend your product and service enough!
- My plantabox is full of happy herbs! I had it as a present and I really love it. Thanks for a brilliant product!
- I love Plantabox! I’ve bought several for gifts, for my sister’s wedding, for mother’s day, for birthdays. They are really personal and made to a high standard. I’m thinking of purchasing a medium sized crate for my cat Morris as he loves sleeping in boxes! I’m going to pad out the inside with an old dressing gown! Thank you so much
- The new crates are absolutely gorgeous – well done! Just have to find someone who is getting married now!!
- The apple crate is much better than I thought. I am very pleased with it. It is to be decorated with flowers as a surprise for my daughter’s wedding. Can’t wait to see her reaction. She will love it! Even the printed message is on quality paper. The window box herb crate is lovely too. Thank you
- The boxes are just unique and lovely, you have great ideas on the website and an ever growing collection of boxes. Like the way they are presented and grouped into events. You cannot stop with just one box and everyone wants one as a present. The service is great, too, very flexible and I like the fact that there is room for comments for delivery. Delivery has always worked great, no hassle whatsoever. Plantabox still has that personal touch which will hopefully never get lost.
- My friend was delighted with the toy box we ordered for her baby boy. Thank you for your extremely fast and efficient service. Will definitely be ordering from you again.
- Brought many of your products, fantastic quality and range of designs. Highly recommend. Includes fast delivery. Many thanks
- Excellent products – I have ordered a number of crates now, all have arrived promptly & have been of great quality. These make really good gifts – all of my recipients have loved them! Fantastic customer service too.
- I have bought several crates as gifts for friends and family and have always been pleased with the product. Recipients have been delighted with their unique gift. The most recent purchase was a extra wedding surprise for my daughter and her husband. I filled the planter with “wedding themed ” goodies and they were delighted. They will now fill it with plants as a permanent reminder of their happy day.
- Service, packing of products, speed of delivery. The quality of the products and accuracy was great, loved the fitted liners for the crates a great idea. All recipients were delighted with their present.
- This was the second time I have used Plantabox and I was just as impressed as the first time. Fabulous quality, such a quirky gift and amazing service. I love the ordering process, how you can actually see how the type looks on the crate and the delivery is super fast. Brilliant – I will definitely use you again.

Couldn’t help noticing in Jamie’s latest book that he has one of our crates. I hope Jules knows that he’s using it outside to cook on! It’s on page 221.

This lovely small crate for Old Spitalfields Market not only had a lovely version of the brand on the side in our traditional format but also utilised the lid. The crispness of the print allowed us to include some very find detailed graphics and also match the logo colour too. Another fine example of our technology in action!

We recently produced these stunning HD crates for Neal’s Yard, with over 100 they make a pretty spectacular statement!
