 Transform an ordinary strawberry jar
into an enchanting miniature garden with any of these six creative
planting ideas.
Container Gardens
You don't need a huge yard, or
any yard at all, to create a wondrous container garden. All you
need is a strawberry jar -- one of those unusual-looking pots
with multiple planting pockets. Add an assortment of plants,
a bit of earth, and a healthy dose of imagination.
Voila! You have an eye-catching container garden to brighten
a porch, deck, patio, or patch of grass.
When planting, be creative. Just
because you're working with a strawberry jar doesn't mean you
have to stick with the obvious plant material.
