Hypertufa is a cast
"rock-like" material which can be used for relatively inexpensive pots
and slabs for plantings. It looks like rock, can be cast into almost any shape,
is very lightweight and also strong enough to withstand the freeze/thaw cycle
of most northern climates. They can be textured anywhere from very smooth to a
rough rocky look for a "natural pot". The finished products are lighter in weight than concrete and have an
ancient look about them, as if they'd been sitting outside for the past couple
of hundred years, quickly attracting licens and moss. The thick walls of the planters protect against the weather and nuture plants.
Come and learn how
to make hypertufa pots and troughs. Classes are offered at the nursery each summer for you to
learn to make your own creation.
Or stop by to purchase one of our
