Horticultural catalogs carry the clear, green, and brown plastic netting and the Sphagnum moss to contain the root ball for making these if interested. Or it is even cheaper to buy the moss and a small roll of the plastic fencing and make your own. Lowe's and Home Depot carry both this time of year and color of the netting is the only limitation. Plant selection needs to be limited to those with the same light and water needs otherwise you have to water 'something' almost daily. And they will still need at least weekly attention for trimming, deadheading, etc. to maintain appearance. I recommend using purchased 'houseplants'. The small 6" pots of them are inexpensive and easy to ball up. As an alternative consider one of the so-called "living wall planters". Linked an example of one type below but there are many. Scope out all the various pics attached to it for ideas. They can be attached to walls or hung suspended. Dave Here is a link that might be useful: Living wall planters

Have you looked at Graceful Gardens yet? When I was starting out here, I ordered from them and really liked what I got. They do send some (fairly) small plants though, so maybe not exactly what you're looking for. I do, however, still have some of the plants (and their offspring) after 4 or 5 years. I would also recommend Niche at http://www.nichegardens.com They offer healthy plants at reasonable prices and nice sizes. I like PattiOh's choices too. I'll toss out some seed suggestions: Nigella, Cosmos, Marigolds, Morning Glories, Black Eyed Susans, Bachelor's Buttons, Flax, Blanket Flowers, Sunflowers, Blackberry Lily, Valerian, herbs like parsley/dill/fennel, Columbine, Strawberries, Agastache, Calendula. You might also do a search through this forum. I swear it seems like we had a thread about seeds not long ago, but I don't see it offhand. We do talk a lot, so it's probably a good few pages back by now. We have had seed swaps the past two Falls (hosted by Faltered, many thanks), so keep your eyes open since many of us have plenty to share. Here is a link that might be useful: Graceful Gardens

jth97381 - It doesn't look like your setup to e-mail through Gardenweb. I don't know everyone on here yet, but are you Jason, the owner of Western Evergreen? I'm just guessing by the letters in your username =) I was going to e-mail through the website here today or tomorrow to ask about the liners. I see some 1 gallons I definitely want, but would also like to add some liners to the list depending on what's available. Can you e-mail the information to me @ RickSample01@neo.rr.com

For that size pot, probably Home Depot or Lowe's. I have a friend who bought his at the Farmer's Market in OKC, but I think he still paid quite a bit for them. Also, Garden Ridge usually has fairly decent prices on pots, and this time of year, they may be running specials. Susan
