Three Tier Garden Container

An impressive and fun garden project is a three or four tier container suited to a particular spot in your garden.

I have a slightly shady area, so I chose Calla Lilies surrounded by English Ivy and some tall grasses (behind the Lilies) for the topmost (and smallest) pot.

The second larger pot, I filled with Impatiens. (Because my project was to sit in front of a section of fencing, it was not necessary to plant anything in the back section of the pot.)

In the bottom (largest) pot, I used Hosta on the sides and a bright red and green Coleus in the middle area.

The results are amazing, and although planted only a month ago, it is full and lush and all I have to do is pinch off wilted Impatiens here and there.

Another great thing about this project is that the pots I bought were very inexpensive plastic ones from WalMart. This is a big savings when you have a whole garden to work on!

Just remember to water as needed. It is very hot where I live, so I water every day.
