So, whether you choose a classic wooden bench or a more contemporary stainless steel set, you can be confident to sit back, relax and enjoy your garden furniture in the knowledge that it will be looking just as beautiful next year, and the year after, and the year after that, and the year after that …

Stainless steel planters from Garden Style Direct will add structure to your garden.

Using steel planters is the ideal way to create a distinctive and fresh contemporary look in your garden and now is the time to think about which summer-time blooms you would like to showcase in your outside space.

Garden Style Direct’s Stainless Steel Planters have the added aesthetic appeal of reflective surfaces which echo the colours of surrounding plants, adding depth to their visual effect. Go for symmetry with identical planters and planting for calming minimalism, try straight lines for architectural, urban chic (below) or mix and match sizes as shown above to create interest and a softer look.

The straight vertical lines of the Stainless Steel Square Planters from Garden Style Direct will add a touch of gravity to your garden or terrace.

Garden Style Direct Steel Planters are highly durable and made with 304 grade stainless steel for a top quality finish. Their hard wearing properties make them the perfect accessory for your garden or terrace, but you could also use them indoors for anything from your potted plants on the kitchen window sill to that retro Yucca house plant in the corner of your lounge as there is a wide range of sizes available to choose from.

Browse our extensive selection here or, if stainless steel isn’t quite the look you were searching for, try our Elho ‘Pure’ range, inspired by nature.

Garden Style Direct specialise in beautiful rattan furniture for your garden, summerhouse or conservatory

What is rattan and why is it perfect for creating beautiful garden furniture?

Natural rattan is a type of palm that can be found growing in Asia, Australasia and tropical areas of Africa. There are approximately 600 species that can be referred to as rattans and unlike other types of palms, most behave like vines, weaving their way over and through other vegetation with spines that act as hooks to hold them in place. It is possible for rattans to grow up to several hundred metres in length.

Synthetic fibres, inspired by natural rattan are the perfect modern equivalent from which to make conservatory or summer house furniture as they are light-weight and durable as well as more environmentally friendly and fully recyclable. Garden Style Direct is a respected retailer of Alexander Rose. Our wide range of designer synthetic rattan furniture is produced by some of the best weavers in the world and we buy from suppliers who source their materials responsibly, ensuring the welfare of local people and the sustainability of the environment from which they harvest.

Enjoy your Garden Style Direct rattan furniture in the knowledge that;

1. Synthetic rattan is a hardy material that is resistant to both UV rays and extreme weather conditions.
2. Your furniture has been made with materials that are environmentally friendly.
3. Our products are family-proofed and easy to clean. You won’t need to worry about spilling suntan lotion or exposing your furniture to chlorinated water from the pool. The cushion covers are also machine washable.
4. Style need not be sacrificed for practicality and comfort!

Redfyre 25 Gas BBQ

Here at Garden Style Direct, we don’t need much excuse to have a barbecue and this week is National BBQ Week so why not get some lovely garden furniture and put some steaks on your barbecue.

To celebrate National Barbeque Week we thought we’d let you in on some interesting facts and figures about the UK’s BBQ habits.

• In 2009, the UK was Europe’s leading BBQ nation – hosting 120 million BBQs and beating the Germans into second place for the 3rd year running.
• Official figures show that actually 49 per cent of barbecues are cooked by women, but maybe it’s just that they take over once the men get bored!
• The overall BBQ, alfresco eating & entertaining market is now worth just over £7 billion, up from £150 million in 1997.
• Over 70% of households own a barbecue.
• The average number of BBQs held per family over the summer has risen from around 4 five years ago to over 9 today.
• BBQ & alfresco eating has now become a standard alternative summer meal, with nearly 50% of the UK population now considering it normal to barbecue or eat outside during the summer.
• The occasion is still also perceived to be an indulgence or treat with 37% likening a BBQ to a dinner party.
• The majority of consumers will spend £35 on barbecue food and drink up from just £19 five years ago.
• Thanks to the gas barbecue becoming increasingly popular (40 per cent of us have them, rather than charcoal models), the food tends to taste less of paraffin and more of, well, food.

If you want to join the trend and opt for an easy to use, high quality gas barbecue, take a look at our stunning, premium range of Redfyre Gas Barbecues.
