I wanted to get some opinions on Pamela Crawford's products, and also on side planting. I found her planters in a Kinsmangarden.com catalogue that I received a couple of months ago. Although the planters seem pricey, I really like the look of the finished product. I especially like the border columns that you can put in your garden, and am seriously considering trying this. If anyone has any experience with these products, I would love to hear it.
Essentially, the basket allows you to easily plant flowers in the top as well as the side, which grows into a large full looking planter. The border columns allow this to be elevated in the garden. This picture is from her website, http://sideplanting.com/default.asp?action=drawpage&pageid=2...
The second question that I have is the actual plants to be used. In her website, all the plants she recommends are for shade or partially shady area. I am thinking about using this in full sun areas, but I hesitate to spend a lot of money if it isn't practical in these areas. I'm wondering if others have done something similiar, and if so, which plants they might recommend. These are her recommendations http://sideplanting.com/images/recommendedplants.pdf.
