    @rowlandscastle444, you could try cat mint, pussy willow or leopard’s bane

    There was a full bathroom suite planted up in someone's front garden on the way to long Stratton in norfolk, when I was a kid going to see my nan. I think it had been like that for a couple of decades.

    The sedum in the boots are very popular in the lake district.

    My Grandmother had a pair of wooden clogs planted up with pelargoniums. I have the clogs in my shed - I must dig them out as I can’t recall if they have a drainage hole. I might have a go this year.

    Love all the potted cats… seems they are pretty popular. 
    Not so much containers, but my mum and I are pros at repurposing things to hold pots. Kitchen benches, old walking frame, old disabled loo seat….

    No pictures, but a few years ago, I used both the metal "basket thing, that used to sit in the (round) kitchen sink,and metal Culender as hanging baskets. Just bought chains.
