The project:
I visited Bunnings to special order the Keter version, a person spotted me, and walked away out the back door. My wife mentioned they have other colourful pots. I had a look, yes.
- Materials:
Check the cable tie goes through the links.
- Tools:
Drill to drill three holes in each pot.
- Step 1:
Wanted to buy, I’ve been waiting a couple of years for these to come back into stock.
Pots this size grow this succulent well. Spot the pot man lower wearing the sun glasses. The grand child thinks they are funny. I hope the next Shrek 5 movie has merch.
The Crassula used. For many pots here, little cuttings off the main one worked well. Note, there was only one of these Crassulas in my local Bunnings at the time.
To get the holes evenly spaced, measure around the pot, divide by three, and mark off where the ruler is. I had five pots, I used a tomato stake and marked the top and bottom pots, then the half way mark, then half again. With the cable ties do them up a little. Reason, fine tuning the gaps between the pots and fine tuning to get the pots level with a spirit level.
After marking one of the pots, mark the others. I drilled the holes under the folded over lip. I checked these are UV stabilised.
I planted petunias which have just come into stock along with the succulents. The petunia will fade, but in Adelaide these succulents will power through an Adelaide winter.
