This is the second Blossoming Decorative Steele Garden Bench I've bought. The first which I kept for myself has been outside our home for 3 or 4 years. It looks just like it did when I first purchased it even though it has been through Iowa's 4 seasons.  I just purchased a second bench to which a brass memorial plaque will be attached to honor loved ones who have passed. This bench is going to be donated to the city park of there home town.
