Spring Cleaning Miniature Gardening
Now for bigger trees
My experiment in planters went well so I will have to make more of those or go “shopping in the garage” for other suitable containers. Until then there are courts, plazas, sidewalks, and parks to garden not to mention the stately homes of the Ash and Oak membership.
I have two identical trees that look highly manicured and maintained so thought they would be the perfect choices for my next experiment; trees in planted beds.
Foam discs for building up the planted beds and roots of the wire trunked trees.
Used an X-Acto knife to trim the foam before gluing onto some of my wooden discs.
Golden's Course Pumice Gel is applied all over...
... then painted in layers of brown. I decided against flocking them as I like the look of moist earth for the planted beds.
Glued the trees in place, clipping the wire that protruded from the bottom.
"Planted" colorful annuals around the perimeter...
... and another step in beautifying my neighborhoods.
