Assuming I would need to buy gardening items, I'd hope to be in Lehman's and buying rakes, hoes, shovels, etc. I'd get the highest quality possible for the price. Ahhh. Well, within those parameters... First, I ask MrLoverMan to drive me to FavoriteLocalGardening store. While MrLoverMan drives, I jump online to purchase this olla-inspired watering system. Once that purchase is confirmed, I call the storage facility around the corner from my house. At this point the adventure opens up two possible paths: (1) If affordable, I reserve a storage space for the winter months to serve as a garage-like space to over winter plants. Then, at FavoriteLocalGardening store I purchase whatever fig, fruit tree, and brambles I like and the most ginormous pots possible, with low lying plant stands to match. I want to be sure I have a way to slip a dolly under them so that I can wheel them around the corner come overwintering time! (2) If the garage-like storage unit was not affordable then I purchase hanging flower pots, stands to hang them on, and rebar to help with the stands. Then, I purchase all the annuals that I want + potting mix. If there's still money left over, I'll purchase some half whiskey barrels or other extra large aesthetically pleasing pots. Being realistic, there isn't any money left over. So, I use my own money to purchase some second hand 65gal plastic barrels or larger IBC tanks that originally held plant-friendly substances and I plant in those. Fun exercise!
