    Thanks Poppycat.

    Any ideas for larger containers - something recycled perhaps?

    The ones at Wilkos are £1 for 11" and I think its £2 something for the largers ones of them. They also do larger coloured pots about a fiver, I have had a couple of them there frost safe

    I saw really cute small half barrels a few days ago for £5 at Pound Stretcher. They would look great planted with flowers.

    I want to move to theory. Everything works in theory.

    I'm not sure whether there is a local Pound Stretcher - if there is that's a great idea.

    Tyres nice and cheap painted of course, two or three makes a huge tub. Half sawn barrels, old sinks, wellington boots, errrr..no can't think of anything else
