I am really excited to have my first blog ever!! My horticulture is pretty good, but my design skills are lacking. I have a container farm, which is really a bunch of containers that I am working on getting to look nicer.

Containers...

I have started a new container garden collection. It all started with finding Gerbera Daisies for two buck a piece. I ended up with two flats with is 24 plants. The reason they were so cheap is that they were pot bound and half dead- mostly from dryness. I got them home and pruned out all of the dead stuff and submerged them for about five minutes. I used an alfalfa kelp tea to bring them back to life. I had a 90% survival rate. Now I need 18 new pots. I have thought about painting clay pots but I don't know what kind of paint to use. Any suggestions on how to get a herd of nice looking pots cheap please reply. Thanks.
