bright planters for patio garden

[TremoloGreen]

I've got a back yard which looks a bit bare and industrial at the moment and was hoping to get some bight/cheery planters to make it look more welcoming. I have big french windows looking out on to it, so something quite modern be congruous with the indoors.

I really like these, but they're very expensive... has anyone seen anything similar that might not be so spenny? I'm looking for long troughs as well as round planters.
