While I was in San Francisco touring gardens with my buddies Harriet and Ryan, I couldn’t stop taking pictures of container gardens. Although a lot of the plants were beautiful, more often than not I found myself snapping pictures of all the clever little ways people had filled their pots instead of the flowers that were in them.
The container gardens were filled with everything from chunky bark to wine corks. And you know what? They all looked great. Here are a few of my favorites:
I think my favorite one was the pot with polished rocks.
How about you? Do you have a favorite?

Mine is the sea flass. Reminds me of camping with my kids, we have contests who can collect the most! We also compete for rarest color, coolest shape, etc.

Glass…not flass. LOL!

I used leftover colored glass pebbles/ rocks from my wedding centerpieces. My daughter loves how they sparkle in the sunlight when she’s watering her container garden.

Hi Mavis! I tried the discount mags code but it only took off $3 (for a total of $11.99/1 yr subscription). Still, not a bad deal but not the $7.50 I expected. Just FYI!! 🙂 Thanks for all your awesome blogging– Love it!
Cheers!

I had my pot with seashells! Back then I was living near the beach, and I often collected seashells there.
