(1,925 posts)Every plant looks so healthy and what a great idea to use the containers...
Just looking at your photos with the bricks in front of the containers makes me think that the bricks would retain heat from the day and be able to radiate the heat at night thus providing a consistent temperature from day to night... and your plants would feel quite cozy..
I think that may be a good idea here in a chillier climate..
Years ago when I was living in Ireland, my neighbour had a lovely garden. She said that her first year gardening she had planted tulip bulbs, but in the spring all her neighbours tulips came up but hers did not...
So she carefully dug down into the soil and looked at her tulip bulbs and she saw that she had planted all the bulbs upside down.
But the tulip bulbs had all grown and the growing stem of the tulips had turned and were heading up towards the sun and the surface of the ground.
That gave her confidence that nature would help out even if her method was all wrong
But your plants look beautiful Aerows and so does your helper..
Thanks again.
