Strangest container.

Just wondering if anyone would like to join in with
' The strangest container' this summer.
Might be a bit of fun.
Who can grow something in a really strange or unusual object.
Then a photo could be posted.
It might be something already growing or new for this summer.
Anyway I'll leave it with you.
I'll have a look today to see what I can find.

 

I have shown this last year Lyn. As you can see it's still growing strong.
The pipe was laid flat and I can only assume a mouse stored a Hazel nut inside it.:D

 

Thats great.
Just what I was thinking of.
It always amazes me.
Plants grow so easily by themselves.
So why do I have so much trouble.LOL

 

I Saw a lovely old gas boiler from the 50's full with spring flowers.
The tall grey/blue one on little legs with a tap low down on the front.
I remember one at my nans house when I was a child.
Sadly I didn't have my camera with me.

 

Not super weird but I grow my 'pick and come again' lettuce in a 1930's bread bin with holes drilled in the bottom. And yes, in case of frost I do still have the lid.

 

:D
Thats great.
I'm going to try some lettuce, but we go on hoiday 14th june for 2 weeks so I'll have to wait till I get back.
I'm not sure how long they take to grow.:confused:

 

They are quick growing but do not need attention. Just pop the seed in Lyn and leave them outside. They need no attention.

O.K I'll do that tonight.
It's still lovely here.

Apart from the potatoes with blight .... the rhubarb did particularly well in the plastic dustbin!

 

Spuds grow great in containers.
