The truck stops here: recycled tyre garden pots

recycledtireplanter1.jpg

Being tough and waterproof, old truck tyres make great planting pots that will blend into your garden surprisingly well.

These pots are from 100% recycled material and come in various sizes, some large enough to house trees. They're put together by hand, and I quite like the fact that the individual tread marks, metal button and hand stitching make each planter a unique garden feature. And just think of the distance they've travelled to get to your veggie patch!

A range of sizes is available here, with prices starting at £16.99
