Hadn't seen them before but I'll bet those "trees" could be a bit tricky to water!
And I wonder how much they had to "feed" the plants to get them to grow that big?
But a great way to add height to your gardens!

That was amazing. I imagine it could get a little expensive between the pots and plants. Good luck with your pot.

Yeah, I'm sure you could make the pots at home, although with a round bit instead of the shapes they use.
Definitely worth trying!
Cool idea! Now if you can get your husband to make the brackets for the other uses, like the tree... Big Grin

I have had a pipe with a 5 inch diameter about 36 inches long and a smaller pipe in the middle with holes drilled for watering. I also have a basket with a screen over the top of the holes. The trick is to keep the plants watered so that they fill out and to keep the dirt inside the planter or pipe. Yours look very nice. Keep us posted as they grow.
