Since it seems I've been acquiring more and more plants, and pots are too expensive for my taste, I've tried to come up with some cheap solutions for containers. I found these sand buckets at the Dollar Store and think they make nice little homes for my mint plants! Plus the shovel makes a good marker!
As for my other plants, two of my tomato plants now have several flowers, as well as two of my jalapeno plants! Next step, vegetables (*crosses fingers*)
My other herbs are in a large round container.
...And I guess they are doing pretty well. I added a sage, chive, and thyme plant that I got on clearance at Wal-Mart for $1 each. I've been cooking with a few already and I looove it :)
Now hopefully the next time I update, I'll be eating some homemade salsa with my tomatoes and jalapenos?
Super cool idea with the sand buckets and even cuter with the shovels as markers! Very Creative! I so agree about how pots are so expensive and there doesn't seem to be a logically reason why!
