More Container Gardens

The first three pictures are of containers at Disneyland; the last three pictures are of containers at an open mall in Anaheim, CA.

I saw container gardens everywhere I went on my vacation. It showed me that they are useful any place. This first picture shows a container that almost mirrors the plant, at least in basic shape.

This container shows how a fairly tall plant can make an impact. The flowers at the bast of the plant show that you don't always have to have something draping the sides of the pot.


This container had a pine tree in it, which is something you don't see too often. Many of the containers at Disneyland looked like strange combinations of plants, almost like they used leftover plants and just tossed them into pots.

The next two containers were at the entrance of a store at a mall, one on each side of the doors. One picture shows the middle and draping layers, and the second one shows how tall the container palm trees are.



These containers were really interesting--they were about six feet high! They were very dramatic and made quite a statement.

Containers come in any size and price you might want. Plant material is anything you want to put into the container! See what colors, shapes, and growing patterns of plants you can combine! Send me a picture of your container gardens and I will post them!
