    Does anyone know if these lose their colour after a while? I know the stone ones do, I used to re-paint mine but the one I like is resin.

    I had some I bought several years ago, I filled them with sand and duck taped the bottom as I was fed up of them falling over, yes they have lost colour, and most broke but that might be the sand freezing in winter.

      Thanks Pam, I suppose the answer might be to take them in during the winter although the sunshine could still fade them. Pity because a little garden centre near me has some really nice ones.
