  1. I do this too! Never toss a broken pot. I have a friend that does mosaic work. If I can't use it, she can!

  2. I do this too, very Cool Video, WE will have to come visit you there one day! Now off topic for a second: I had a yard full of monarchs. That was when I had tropical milkweed. We also have two varieties of native milkweed. A couple neighbors were upset I had the tropical milkweed, so I got rid of it. Which intern got rid of all the monarchs. I have never seen any monarchs lay or go near our native milkweed, and none of my neighbors the same thing. Now that a tropical milk weed plant has started to grow back into my yard on its own I am starting to see monarchs. To me I think The monarchs here are seeking out tropical milkweed? So what are your thoughts, as none have gone near any of the native milk weeds here in SoCal. Thanks🙂

  3. I learned a lot from this video! I didn't realize that you can really pack your pot both on the top and on the side. it looked balanced, and has great variation of color, texture, and of growing habits.
