I have a "thing" for old galvanized.
I bought a 112 year old house with, I swear, the original shed on the property. The shed had quite a few pieces of galvanized buckets and tubs and old enameled dishpans. Of course I planted the ones with holes in the bottoms and found other uses around the yard for the ones without. The enameled plate in the picture with the witches cauldron is a water dish for my cats.
This was found in the basement of my house. The chicken wire supported Thunbergia last year.
this hanging pot has rusted out but watered the wash pan below it!
The large tub has almost no bottom left so I put plastic in so the dirt wouldn't run out
I found this gem at an estate sale recently. I was there while they were packing up and they gave it to me free! Score!
Now I just need to wait until its warm enough to plant!
