s too small
. 5-gallon
buckets of water also help and
can be used to place flower pots on to provide a 3-dimensional
effect
without having to purchase
plants that are naturally tall. I usually paint them so they look
better.
Most of my flowers are planted in pots or planters
because
I have so many trees that it’s difficult
to keep the ground watered enough to support flowers and trees. I also
look for other things that
can hold flowers. Hank Williams claimed a bucket with a hole in it
isn’t any good, but filled
with dirt it makes a useful planter. Large styrofoam shipping boxes
also can be used as planters and can be painted decorative colors..
The trees also provide an advantage in autumn before the leaves
fall. The leaves keep the yard warmer by preventing warm air from
rising. As the sun moves different areas are in sun and in
shadow.
Using pots allows me to move flowers around to replace
pots that aren't doing well
