I bought the pockets online and this was the only colour available. The pockets actually hold a bit more soil than I thought they would.

@JudyEv I am every time surprised to see how much soil even small pots need.

Wow that is really GREEN!! Nice idea though, I hope the plants do well. How about some trailing plants at the bottom?

Haha. GREEN indeed but it will fade I'm sure. Good idea about some trailing plants. This is only day 1. I can now decide what other colours I need. I have one strawberry plant too but one isn't going to be enough.

I saw one of these last summer and it was really pretty. Yours is off to a great start and it will be so pretty when it’s all planted. Now I want one for my fence!

@MarieCoyle You could grow a lettuce or two, or certain vegetables.

I wonder if the pockets would work like a bonsai pot and any trees would stay tiny.

I bought the pockets online. They weren't terribly expensive although I'm not sure how long they'll last. I guess I'll find out.

Wow!

That is great especially for someone living with limited space but wants to plant. Can’t wait to see how it looks when all 50 pockets are filled. It’s going to be awesome watching everything grow and fill out!

What a wonderful idea..wish I could do that here but it would not be allowed and would most likely be destroyed anyway due to homeless meanies walking thru.
