Make Zest Garden!

Then it was time to load up the truck! Massive girl-power, y’all! These were boulders that had already been dug out due to other projects, so no we are not completely insane.

Now that we had created rock (boulder) planters around our 5 gallon buckets and things were feeling secure, we measured out spaces to drill through our 4″x4″‘s.

Our idea was to string some steel wire that would support some beautiful vining plants.

We poked the wire through the hole we drilled and wrapped it around the post.

We continued to string the wire across all of the posts to get our “living wall” effect.

Disclaimer, we at first thought that wisteria would be a gorgeous backdrop, but after planting it and then thinking about it for a couple of days…we freaked!

Wisteria is so crazy that we knew in a short while, we would see our boulder planters destroyed as the massive plant pushed through every crevice. No thank you!

So, we quickly transplanted that elsewhere and replaced it with some potato vine. Fingers crossed!!

We cannot wait to show some pictures a little further along in the season.
Happy gardening!!
