CONTAINER GARDENING 11 FLOORS UP

GARDEN JOURNAL

On a Roll

March 22, 2008 – 12:27 pm

Started to move containers around today and remembered that most are heavy and ackward to lift. Checked out the local nursery in search of strong platforms with wheels and hit the jackpot. Bought five inexpensive round wood ones and a larger metal version. The wood planters have four casters, the metal version has a five caster set. They are nice and low to the ground; functional and unobtrusive. The wood platforms are perfect for the tufa troughs, but not quite strong enough for the cement troughs. Neither are strong enough for my new stone bowls, so I’ll continue to stack up bricks to add height to the pond set up.
