I'm wanting to build a strawberry plant centrepiece. Ideas?

Oh YES Loralee! The sky is the limit? Then what about a 10 foot by 5 foot ARBOR with buckets of strawberries cascading out of them? Here is a picture of what I have in mind (I hope you like it and good luck!)

oh nuts! let me try to post the picture again

Loralee, THIS is the link I saw the picture at (the berries in the picture are actually growing from rain gutters connected to the beams of the arbor), but the following link has tons of ideas that may help you to develop what you are thinking about ;) (Do I get excited even at the thought of strawberries? you BET I do! LOL)

Love this. Simply beautiful!

how about using half wine barrels and wood lug boxes?

Hi Loralee, What about a neat old wheel barrow and some wooden buckets!

These would look great filled with strawberries!! :)

Have fun, what ever you decide! Would love to see before/after pictures!!!

I used tiered kids wading pools with a couple of cement blocks under the centers of them(where there are no plants) ...otherwise the pressure of the weight of the upper pools becomes too great. The new growth shoots just cascaded into the lower pools and take root - it fills up very fast, and lasts a long time if you mix the types of berries. My ever-bearing always won, but the variety of berries is a nice taste surprise. Hint: I placed a couple of drain holes about 3 inches up the sides(not on the bottom) If you get a major downpour, the plants can drown. An upside down clear plastic bottle cut to the depth of your soil will let you see the level of water in the containers
