Container Gardening Gone Crazy

I am really getting a case of "spring fever" here. I want spring to get here yesterday so I can be out working in my gardens and yards. 

I found some really neat ideas for container gardening. This is a good time to start gathering up things you can use to "container garden" in your space.

I love the use here of old gutters!  Now, that is a good example of up-cycling, I'd say. Or hang them like any other planter.

This first stacked planter is a winner!  I didn't care for my old-fashioned 'strawberry' planters as they really didn't have the room to work with.  This one is great!
