Rainwater Urn
What it is: A stylish 65-gallon rain barrel that looks like a terracotta planter.
Why we love it: Rain barrels are a great water-saving resource but typically aren't very attractive. The Rainwater Urn is a stylish, shapely alternative to traditional rain barrels and blends beautifully in any urban landscape design. Made of UV-stable, scratch- and chip-resistant polyethylene, it holds 65 gallons of water and looks like terracotta. It has a brass spigot, 6-foot hose with shut-off valve and a removable top that can be used to store watering accessories or display a potted plant. Measures 20" diameter x 46" high.
Who we'd give it to: Gardeners who don't want to sacrifice design to be eco-friendly.
Where to get it: From Gardeners.com for an eco-chic $199.00.
