I like that idea of putting rocks in pots, too, as I am terrible at watering pots, so anything in a pot has to be pretty drought tolerant, and rocks would certainly fit the bill! It definitely does help the look when one has gorgeous, giant hand-hewn pots, though :) I like your tall terra cotta pots. I haven't seen those type before, and they look so nice!Indiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14004102653896371835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3636445408720805216.post-34466342544950848932015-10-30T12:51:53.083-07:002015-10-30T12:51:53.083-07:00You are so good at finding bargains! $1 for the fi...You are so good at finding bargains! $1 for the fish terracotta pot? I love it. BTW, thanks for showing Linda's atrium garden, which is really nice. I didn't see it when I visited. It reminds me of certain Japanese atria gardens in its careful arrangement, which is made to be viewed through a window and not entered.Pam/Digginghttp://www.penick.net/diggingnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3636445408720805216.post-9212193666680307732015-10-30T11:44:42.079-07:002015-10-30T11:44:42.079-07:00Luckily my pots are under cover, just like I am.
