Urban jungle (sort of): Recycle an old piece of furniture into a lush mini-garden

Step 3 3

1. Gently remove a plant from its plastic pot and check the roots; if they’re tightly intertwined, loosen them a bit with your fingers. Dig a hole in the soil roughly the size of the plant’s root ball and sink the plant into the soil, making sure the base of the stem is above the soil. Pat the soil softly but firmly around the plant to keep it in place. Repeat with all of the plants.

Decorate the top of the garden with stones or a cute little garden gnome.
