  • These cheap, sometimes free black plastic nursery pots are indispensable in the garden. They are great multitaskers for planting, garden, grooming, overwintering, and using container plantings in the border.
    On my recent trip to Scotland, I found some great uses for them that I will be sharing with you and employing in my own garden design! Stay cool out there, my friends😁.

    I strategically position black nursery pots around the yard to toss in weeds or garden discards. The black pots blend behind plantings and are not noticed in the landscape. When any of them are full, they are easily transported to my compost.

    Just have to publicly tell you, Linda, and your viewers that you are as lovely and authentic in person as you are on screen. I took a detour on my way home from CO to see if I could drive by Linda's house. It was on my list of things to do and my husband knew how important it was to me. OMG! Her yard is so beautiful and full of happy butterflies and bees. What joy! And to top it all off, Linda came outside and visited with us from a distance since she is sick. I could have spent the day with her like an old friend. Just know she is the kindest and most gracious lady. No wonder we all love her! Thank you, Linda Vater!!--your fan from Bossier City, LA

    I love to re-use plastic pots! I've made some look like terra cotta by smoothing on some cheap spackle or something before spray painting. I love Rustoleum and can no longer find "Terra Cotta" but there's a cinnamon that's almost the same. You can also make them move heavily textured and make them look like stone.

    Very timely advice about using black nursery pots! Due to a limited budget and gardening on a small lot in a mobile home community with an HOA restricting what I can plant in the ground, I mainly container garden...I do have some dscorative pots for entry plants but am not opposed to using black plastic pots, I have a zen type garden and have learned how to disguise the pots with the foliage and trailing plants. I do use grow bags in some instances, I was very happy to read your tips!

    I was a decorative artist for many, many years - and I used to do mini Monet’s garden murals on my pots! Haven’t in ages..I sold them. I have a million faux finish recipes in my brain - I need to use them. Easier than wall finishes for sure! I guess a good acrylic spray will protect the finish outdoors. Question about your bulbs that you plant in them and store in the garage. Do they need any light…or will they grow in a dark garage? Thanks…love your channel!❤❤❤

    So glad you are back from Scotland,UK.

    I use my nursery pots also. I after my landscaper plants the plant of my choice into the ground, I keep the nursery plastic container and put it in a basket or raised bed. The large nursery pots are hard to find. I've seen them at Home Depot, they are expensive and they are not good quality.

      Get a few packages of seeds for flowers that get large. Plant them in the black plastic pot. And then when it’s time to plant bulbs go to the dollar store and buy a package of them. You can make things beautiful on a budget too!
