Hi JoAnn,
There are trailing plants in the cage (ivy), but they aren't spilling yet. Just planted it a couple days ago. Great slogan, and very true. The spiller usually winds up being my favorite part.

The first ones I did of these was about 45 years ago...when I did a half dozen ladies... One had a bridal veil then.. So choosing a plant for Pearl was easy... Just do the same thing

Ok... On new one in progress... The coffee table .. A concrete planter with the glass top... It's just getting planted.. Inside with the plants is a solar light I cut down so in the evening the plants are lit.. Making it a bit safer at night... And slightly mystical
