yoongf 11 Report post Posted October 3, 2007 Floor planter box can use wooden strips to cover up as u have mentioned, to extend the floor area.Alternatively.. put potted plants inside, and then top off with those brown colour expanded clay balls. Whatever u do, do not simply pour soil into planter box, as that will increase the risk of unsightly wet stains. Use as large pots as will fit into the gap.

Use as large pots as will fit into the gap.I'm thinking of doing the wooden strips/ planks at my planter to extend floor area and create a small "balcony" effect. But my planter is pretty wide, about 80cm, not sure how much wooden strips would cost ? Any other alternative, such as using metal plates ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
