An old chair with the seat removed?

Thank you so much! It's fieldstone, from our big field and goes for about three times the length shown, half built last year and the other half built this year. Some are quite deep and round with just the flattest side up. Its like building a jigsaw puzzle, but more work and fun too (for a little whille, anyway).

That's a 5' dahlia growing in the seat. I might put something that gets tall faster in that spot next year, something permanent, maybe. I have planted perennial sweet peas beside it to grow up on the top.

I think any old wooden or black iron chair would look good in the garden as a plant holder for fall-over plants. Even a matching set of two or three together, if you have a big garden. I have a matching set of four black iron chairs waiting for a project, but I think I'm going to tile the seats and actually sit on them.

An iron headboard or footboard, painted black would look very good too, as a stake for fall-over plants, with a few vines growing on it.

Another suggestion is an inukshuk holding up a tall plant behind it. I want to make one in my garden when I get a chance and can find the right, stackable rocks.

A totem holding up a tall plant beside it? I want to carve one from a cedar post I have, when I have time. (It's on a long list of things I want to do – a really, really LONG list…) 

I have seen this done with old fashioned toilets too.  How 'bout that for the front yard?  LOL

(look The horse is pooping LOL)
