We like how something as simple as rosemary in a terra cotta planter can make a strong impact when grouped in a bunch. For anyone out there with a similar, difficult-to-do-much-of-anything-with entryway, we think this is a great idea.

Are they about an inch thick with no bottom?
If so, they are chimney flues.
Or possibly, underground drainage "tiles".

Looks great and no doubt smells wonderful, but I am amazed they haven't been stolen (yet).

I bet the rest of that garden is stunning.
Honestly I thought those were lavender, not rosemary plants. Rosemary tends to be shiny green, and these plants have dusty grey green leaves -- not that it matters in any way other than that lavender makes a nice alternative to rosemary.

klmg924, I agree that it's lavender and not rosemary. I clicked comments to post the exact same thing.

Hey! Check this site out if you like those planters.

Apparently the chimney flue industry has been thinking outside of the box! There's a few cool things on their site.

Also, chimney flues can be cut down easily with a large diamond blade grinder saw.

I live half a block down the street from this house and have always admired the visually transparent and planter-adorned stairs up to the main entrance. Seen side-by-side with the adjoining properties, this building is also a terrific argument for San Francisco's new reluctance to authorize the construction of parking garages in front of historic buildings.
