I saw this in a magazine and thought it was an interesting idea. I expect that you could adapt it to the colours of any country's flags. The shopping list to create it is: ~One 16-1.2 inch terra cotta saucer ~Four terra -cotta pots (one each: 16-inch, 14-inch, 12-inch and 8-inch ~One 36-inch long dowel, 5/8-inch-diameter ~A good potting mix ~Petunias in red, white and purple ~Decorative river rocks ~American flags It's probably an old idea and most of you have seen it before but maybe the new gardeners will find it interesting.

I'm glad you like it as I was planning on doing it too. It gave me ideas about some of my blah planters that I could maybe add an extra tier and get better results. |

I like that Sash... Maribeth when I first seen this I thought of the pot rack you sent me and wondered if I could engineer a way to use it with this. Peggy |
