- Look through the options. If you're lucky you'll find a dead tree trunk that has a large hole on it. You always have the option of drilling a hole in a tree trunk.
- Tilt the tree up.
- Find a plastic container or can to put inside the hole. This will hold your plant of your choice.
- Another option is stuff it with styrofoam.
- Fill the container/hole up with soil. this is so the plant will grow in the tree stump.
- Place your plants in the hole.
- This works with or without a pot.
- Put your natural planters in your garden. Not only does this look good and natural, but you're literally giving life to a dead tree. Awesome!
