Recommended Method #1:

  • line the inside of your basket with a piece of plastic-bottom and sides. This will protect your furniture!

  • add a 1 inch layer of compost

  • remove plants from pots and place in basket. Vary the height of the plants by raising the soil level in certain areas

  • add more compost and pat down plants

  • put a layer of decorative moss between plants.

  • Recommended Method # 2:

    This method is obviously quicker to make but it also allows you to easily change the plants if one dies or you want to change the look of the arrangement.
    -Line your basket with plastic.
    -Leave plants in their individual containers and place in basket
    -Add a thin layer of decorative moss between plants

    Note: This arrangement makes a great gift!
