Pretty certain that you're entitled to take what you want with you as long it doesn't make up the fixtures and fittings that were advertised and hasn't been specifically mentioned that you will leave (as carpets and curtains often are)
I'd personally take them....if the new owners get peeved, just say they were gifts from some special friends or family.
Good luck

Even so you could have said they were soooo special to you but the problem seems solved and you are going to take them with you.
Will you have a garden by your new home?

There should be a list of what you're leaving or taking. We had to complete one when we moved, and we received one from our vendors. I wouldn't imagine that containers would go on the list, it's normally things like garden seats. Plants in the garden once the contract's signed are part of the deal too - unless they're specified on the list.
Id check on the list, if I were you!

oooo flub if they were mine they would already have disappeared!! Take them and any special ones just empty - after all you need empty pots to carry the plants in that you are saving....

our garden doesn't even properly count as a garden I think. it's all cobbles (thats 1890s work ethics for ya) and my pots are just in one corner. theres only about six. the guy whos made an offer is a developer and will be turning it into flats. soon there will be no houses left on our road.

Definately take them with you flump, he'll most likely chuck them out if he's going to develop the space into flats.

I would take them with you Fump as the others have said if he is going to develop the site then they would end up in a skip broken to bits so he wont miss them.

When we moved here I brought all my containers with me. If I remember right it was plants in the ground that you couldn't just dig up and take without negotiating with the buyer. Good luck with the move Flup.
