This is the leaning plant pot tower I was telling you about. When I go to town today I am going to pick up bigger pots and make one out of that. I was told that whatever you plant in them needs to be draught resistant because things die in these pots like this.
I was thinking maybe hen and chicks or something like that. I may even try marigolds.
Ok, here are the detailed instructions for making these leaning plant pot towers. Pay attention now.
1. push or pound (depending on how dry your ground is) a 4 foot piece of re bar into the ground where you want your leaning plant pot tower to be. Pound it into the ground approximately 12 inches or else one foot. If you pound it into the ground some other measurement you are on your own because this is my directions and I say one foot.
2. place clay pots onto the re bar, slipping the re bar through the hole that comes with the pot. No need to make your own hole, they come like that.
3.alternate the direction in which your pot leans. Example: 1st pot leans to the left, 2nd pot leans to the right and so forth. If you desire you can do it the opposite way without any ill effects. Example: 1st pot leans to the right, 2nd pot leans to the left and so forth.
4. when you reach the top of the re bar post its time to stop putting pots on the post and BINGO you are done.
5. Fill each pot with potting soil and plant something in it.
If you desire to put these detailed instructions for this complicated project on your blog, web site, face book, twitter or whatever be sure to write to me and get permission first because these are my directions and I made them up all by myself. No one helped me either.
I have no idea what got into me while I was writing this. Maybe it was my alter ego doing it. Yeah, that's it. I didn't even write this. My other self did. If its my other self, is it still me? Oh bother.

You are so funny.
I was so worried that no one would realize this was done tongue in cheek.
I was feeling silly.
