I'm usually not much of a hat person, but I have a very unique cane made from multicolored layers of wood.

Sounds like the makings of a possible contest. Dave and Trish, are you listening? (Although I'd hate to see what the elephant ear folks would attempt. I'm not responsible for neck and back injuries resulting... and then there's the carnivorous people Crying )

OK Twitch -
what's your idea of a hat "structure" that won't disintegrate while holding a semp/sedum garden???

Should we all start molding hardware cloth?

Guess we'd have to line it with plastic where it touches our heads.
Then maybe terrycloth under that, to keep it comfortable....

HHmmmmm......

Charleen, you are correct, but there is always that one person who will think of using bound triffids. I know that I would. *Blush*

Critter, semps do tolerate low moisture conditions well. Water them to grow, then stop watering several days before wearing. I was initially thinking straw hats myself. I'll leave the details up to those more creative than I am. What's a little dirt in the hair to garden addicts? Whistling

Plastic plants I can do. I have various plastic or silk flowers I wear on a special hat for various times of the year. But I don't think I'm going to wear that hat to the Botanic Gardens.
