  • Kick your rock gardens up a notch and plant them in something instead. I chose a collection of old kettles. Loving the elevation and junky detail!
  • My little helper Teddy was busy scoping out the area. Approved! Whew... don't mess with a cat I say. 5
  • Each kettle got two rock garden plants, plus were further enhanced with some sticks and stones for a truer rock garden feel.
  • Please don't ask me what these pretty plants are, I'm not a label reader at all (gasp!) but you're welcome to tell ME if YOU know! 2

Forget the tea... these old kettles pour out rock gardens!

I adore working in the garden. Silent therapy in the sunshine while creating... doesn't get much better than that! ...»

Part of my Hometalk Meetup / Out of Africa event was doing something gardenish with junk. So I set about creating little rock gardens inside old kettles. Once I got them home, I found a perfect little corner for the small group.

The tea can wait... I want to plant more!

What's your favourite junky planter to use? I'd love more ideas!

  • Here is the view of the front of the yard. I built this flower bed by myself. This weekend I added a clear coat to the wood, fresh mulch & new white rock. Small changes can make a big difference. 11

The yard I created at my mobile home. The main focal point is the butterfly garden.

My gardens, my breath of fresh air.

There is nothing more theraputic than planting a beautiful flower bed and watching it grow. It gives me so much pleasure and pride.
