I found this picture in one of my Facebook garden posts today, and i really like it. It is made by using different sized flower pots, and arranging them according to size. The result is amazing, and i think I would like to try making one of these.
My thought was that it might even work for strawberries, and would not only keep them off of the ground, but would also make it really easy to pick them.

Wow, it's a lovely planter:)! It looks really unique. I like that it's so easy to make it. I already have a few different sized flower pots, so it's very possible that it'll give it a try:) Thank you for inspiration, Happyflowerlady.

The 1st year Becky I had Diasica plants and trailing fuchsias.

Last year I had nurstumions growing in them.

Which were really pretty.

I shall pop to garden centre and see what else they have.

Yes, such stacked pots are an simple and attractive way to give added height to a container planting.
This arrangement also work well for growing Strawberries (Fragaria x ananassa, etc.).
A fiberglass or iron rebar is placed down the center of all the pots to give the tower added stability.
