Gardener Shares How to DIY a Vertical Garden With Dollar Tree Planters

Vertical gardening is a great way to maximize the limited space in your home or apartment. Vertical gardens make it easy to grow plants without taking up too much floor space, plus they look super trendy!

You can DIY a vertical garden with just a few items you might have lying around the house: Dollar Tree planters, moss, and rocks.

Maintaining a vertical garden can be work, but it doesn't have to be expensive.

Vertical gardens are great for growing food and saving space. If you're looking for ways to grow your food without taking up unnecessary room in your yard or garden, try building a vertical garden!

However, they can get expensive if you don't know how to make them yourself. Luckily there are plenty of online tutorials that teach people how to create their own out of Dollar Tree planters and other materials found around the house or yard.

Folks had great ideas for how to improve this budget-friendly garden.

"I'm thinking to get a PVC pipe, put holes in the pipe, and stack the pots using the PVC," @prntgdcolonized suggested.

"Put a turntable or lazy Susan on the bottom, and PVC pipe over the T-post so you can rotate for sun," @fortsillalumni offered.

Vertical gardens are perfect if you're short on space or have only one wall for planting. They also work well with containers because they allow you to grow more plants in less room than traditional horizontal gardening methods do.
