Ideas in potting displays
 
I do enjoy repurposing things and one of those things converged with a never ending pursuit in finding unique, sustainable and maybe beautiful way of growing my plants.

I love my neo hybrids. The purists here are 'meh' over then but for me they all have such personality and because of their hybrid vigor they allow me to experiment.

I grow most things in sh and I have taken to repurposing old wine bottles for my containers that left me with tops I didn't know what to do with. Until now....

I don't think sh really shows the beauty of these hybrids but this take I hope will yield an even better display and environment that will help these guys not be so dry in my environment.

Looks very nice!

Clever!

I'm wondering how you can use the other end of a wine bottle. I'm thinking the punt could be utilized for something.

I use the bottoms as sh pots for my neofinetia and other plants. If you chose not to hang these, you could place them inside the bottom as well-- which i've done this too. That way if you don't have room to hang the plant in your grow area, youhave the option of hanging it on display elsewhere in the house.

Oh! What a clever idea.
Now I have something to do with all those wine bottle tops I have from making glasses.
