Helpful replies from you and Songbird. I wouldn't have thought


of filling the bottom with space-holding materials, e.g.




some folks just put pots full of soil/mix into larger

containers and use wood chips/mulch/whatever to fill in

around them and then over them too so that it all looks

uniform. makes changing plants in and out very quick.

just scrape aside mulch, lift out pot, put new pot in

with replacement plants, put mulch back. done.


Clevair! Now that's thinking outside the box (pun intended).
