Up on the roof!!
« on: June 11, 2007, 22:42:41 »
Do you like my new roof garden?? Well,  the back garden is looking sad and like a builders yard cos we're having some work done at the minute, so I treated myself to a few plants to brighten things up - eventually all these plants will be in my new raised beds, until then this is what I've got ....




..... and this is the roof .... yes, you guessed right, it's a landrover's roof :roll:  :oops:  :lol:

Very artistic

I cut some old tyres on the rims about 3 in" from the rim on one side, pulled the tyres up inside out for instant planters and painted them white.

I've seen that done before - very effective.

You could always put a board across the tyres & you would have a greenhouse aswell  :D

If those tyres are spares you should cover them from the sun or they will perish quicker than anything.
