Donna Byram on May 03, 2014I had one of those in our front yard at one time, hated it because it had a warning light on a pole sticking up about 4 feet!! We put lattice work around ours to hide it all. Since yours is level to the ground I would use it for placing potted plants on. Remember, if your sewer has to be worked on, the workers will need to be able to get into those places and if you plant flowers around them, they will get trampled.Helpful Reply

Rustic & Refined on May 04, 2014Can you show us a picture of it from a couple of different sides? Without seeing it, I'm wondering if you could just remove any grass around it and throw an outdoor rug on top and some chairs and call it a day? but I haven't seen it...Helpful Reply

Becky Wood on May 04, 2014They make these lg faux rocks that you can cover them with and then you could plant flower around that. A birdbath with plants or something around it. If you can completely cover it without causing problems to your septic you could build rock garden over it. You could also try some sort of free standing wrought iron stand or wooden column that you could hang baskets of flowers or ferns in.Helpful Reply

Catherine Smith on May 05, 2014I really like the idea of the faux rocks and flowers, but do you need to be able to get the lid off to get the system pumped out? If so, you need to plan accordingly, so if you do need to remove anything it is an easier job to do.Helpful Reply
