I Should Start Building Plinths for a Living...

7 years ago

Because they are nowhere to be found. Maybe there are enough folks out there who even know what they are, want one and, like me can't find one and I'll make a bunch of money? Unless you buy them online at a hefty price or make them, the stores don't have them and if you ask someone they look at you funny because they have no idea what one even is. I mentioned it to DH the other day and he looked at me and said "what the heck is it?" and I know I've told him at least twice about them. So I was at the local extension office Master Gardener's plant sale a week ago and saw how they built their own using cement blocks, no mortar involved. So if I can talk DH into bringing some home (after his back gets better that is) I think I'll make one myself. I have a plan for a potted small tree (Chaste Tree) in the center of my flower garden and I want it to be up from the ground. And the reason why I want it in a pot is because this area is only about 5 feet from the edge of the septic tank and I don't want tree roots growing into it. And since they grow very slowly (I have one in another area in the ground) I think it will be safe to put it in a big pot and it won't have to be upgraded for quite awhile. (Hopefully.)
