Bucket with Hole becomes a Planter.

Ornamental Cabbages, Ajuga reptans, and Uncinia rubra. My current favourite colours; creamy white, purple and dark brown.

That's it David! I'm off to the garden centre to buy some! Gotta to steal your ideas I'm afraid, lucky we don't live near each other!

Many Thanx, all!

Phew, Glendas, I caught up with you at last! I think that there's no such thing as "stealing" of ideas here on GOY, just "sharing". I'm just flattered that you like our chosen plants and have gained some inspiration. Idea! Why not try them fringed with plain dark green ivy (or a "bronzed" variety?), and with some deep pink cyclamen? Will be looking for pics soon!

PS Have just noticed ornamental cabbages appearing in several front garden planters in our neighbourhood, heehee!

My only disclaimer is with regard to your spending, lol!

Best Wishes!
