I have one of these type laundry baskets

and instead of concentrating on the chore of washing, I started daydreaming about strawberries, which I often do.
I imagined it lined with a stout binliner. I imagined making little slits through the bin liner where the holes were and popping strawb plants in.
Now there are very few things new under the sun, but I think I`m on to a winner here, what do you think?
This could be used for herbs/lettuce too.

\great idea. I'd try it if I had such a laundry bin. It could be used very decoratively.....stripes of salad leaves/herb etc.0
