Don't laugh...

I'm planting my Micro Tom in a pasta sauce can. It's big enough and I thought the tomatoes/Italian look of the label would be neat.

I don't know how to do pictures. And for some reason my cell phone won't send pictures to Facebook. Sigh.

That's called decorative reuse of something that would land in the garbage and it sounds like it will be cute too.

Ok, I'm laughing, I hate to say it, I don't think I really get it, LOL. That's what happens when you don't get enough sleep, my husband tells me I'm too lightheaded or punch drunk, lol. And, that is all the time by the way.

If you would like to describe it in a more exiting way than "reuse and recycle" you can refer to the planting as Turkish style

I have traveld several times in Turky and especially on the countryside. All small farms that don't have artificial watering systems on their land grow their tomatoes, flowers and other vegetables in big cans earlier used for food as oil, olives, cheese or yoghurt.

I think it looks quite nice actually
