By plantladylin | Have a few old cinder blocks lying around? They make great tomato or vegetable/herb planters for small spaces. Place in a sunny location, turn them on their side, fill with compost/soil, and pop in your plants. The cement holds in heat around the roots. |

I have 3 in my yard. One arrangement is sticking up out of a large pot at the front of my house. People coming to my front door often comment on it and try to figure out how I got those pots to stack on top of each other like that. Succulents grow great in them here in Florida! I have trouble growing most other plants in them because they dry out so fast. But I do grow certain flowering plants in them as well. Succulents really do the best of all !!!
This is one of the tipsy pots that is in a drought area of my yard. I grow some veggies in buckets as you can see in the background.
