I am crazy for containers and that low maroon one is just great.
Fortunate for you no need to store inside for winter.

funny.... but no! Although I do think something tall in the middle with maybe something trailing over the sides will be good.

Or you can also consider:
1) Sanseviera cylindrica
2) Yucca
3) Cycad

All good suggestions!
I have a lot already of the Sansevieria, so I'll probably pass on that. I am leaning towards a nice Cycad but we do suffer with the dreadful scale here so I will give it some thought.
