Tiered Planter

I am slowly revamping much of our landscaping and I am always looking for cute ways to container garden.  I don't remember where I found this idea, but I loved it and thus I promptly added one in our backyard.  These are simple to put together.  Insanely simple and inexpensive too!

Stuff you will need:
*1 Piece of rebar - mine was 5' long and I purchased it at a local home builders store.
*1-2 bags of potting soil, dependent upon the size of  planting containers you use.
*4 Terra cotta pots of varying size
*4 plants.  I like the plants that tend to spread out a bit, like a vine so they can cascade down the planter.
*Starter fertilizer for plants.
*Water(of course)
*Hammer
*Garden hand shovel

Putting it together:  Start by pounding the rebar into the ground where you intend to place the planter.  You will want to be sure that about 1/3 of the length of rebar is in the ground for stability.  Now, slide the largest Terra cotta pot over the rebar by inserting the rebar through the hole in the bottom of the pot.  Fill the bottom pot 2/3 full with soil.  Place the next largest pot over the bar and lay into the foil of the bottom pot at an angle.  The rebar will come through the bottom hole and when you angle the pot it will rest against the side of the top of the next pot.  Now fill this pot 2/3 with soil.  Repeat this process with the last two pots.  Once all of the pots are assembled and filled with soil, create a small "hole" for your plants and put a little starter fertilizer in the bottom.  Next place your chosen plants in each pot and water!  Done!  Like I said - very simple and cute!
