Read on below to see how you can use an old (or not so old) wheelbarrow as a planter.
One tip we?ve picked up is to line metal wheelbarrow?vessels?with some heavy duty plastic. This will keep it from degrading further and rusting into the soil. If you notice any holes, pull the plastic through and snip it to allow?for drainage.?Once you?ve filled the wheelbarrow with soil, let your imagination run away?with planting ideas!
Here we have a wheelbarrow stuffed with succulents, leaving?plenty of space for?growth. With the dusty surroundings and rustic, well-used wheelbarrow, this desert setting looks right at home.
Using a brand new, colorful wheelbarrow with a plastic bin, this setup involves a large box planter, plus space around the edges for tools. This idea allows for continued usability for the wheelbarrow, as well as portability for the flowers.
This idea showcases another brand new wheelbarrow in use, with a subtle grey plastic vessel. The flowers are packed in tightly for a seamless look.
Here we see another brightly colored wheelbarrow in use. The yellow paint helps it stand out, holding subtle greenery.
