I found the cutest planter today at Ross for Less. It's a pickup truck. It's about 12 inches tall and 18 inches in length. There are 2 sections for plants. The cab and the bed of the truck. The roof of the truck lifts up completely for ease in planting. I was going to put planters into the wire frame, then decided to line it with sphagnum moss and a little dirt.

The plants are 2 coleus, love lies bleeding, gizzard plant, and a couple of others I can't remember the names of.

I've taken several photos including some closeups of the plants.

Here it is.
