Nicely done Carol. I like the idea of containers, you can swap them around to give a different display.

Re: Ugly old wall.

Thanks everybody. Originally the idea was to make it low maintenance. It was a mess before & I just wanted something that looked neat & tidy. I bought a few plants to stand in pots on the gravel and my interest just grew from there.

It's all good though because hubby isn't interested in the garden at all but this I can look after myself.

Now I can't stop buying plants.

Ah yes, the plant buying becomes addictive - I know, I'm a recovering addict!

It becomes addictive don't it Carol. Still, there's a lot of worse vices
You've done a good job there, it looks really nice.


(whoops, sorry cranberry, just seen I've almost duplicated what you said).
