Instruction

Check whether parameters approach. Height of the part of wire cylinder acting from container cannot exceed height of the container more, than by 3 times. Otherwise the design will be unstable. If the cylindrical framework after all has turned out too high, cut off it scissors on metal.

3. To learn how many it is required to us films, it is necessary to envelop it framework outside and, having left stock the size equal to the size of wire section, to cut off superfluous. Then we cover film cylinder from within, having placed its edges with an overlap that soil did not pour out.

5. Let's start filling of design with soil. Having filled the third part of framework with soil, it is necessary to water well it that the soil has sunk. We fill up one more part and again we water. We repeat our actions and we stamp soil.

6. Also we fill up the soil between walls of flower container and framework, carefully stamping for bigger stability.

7. By means of knife we do crosswise cuts in film, having them in chessboard order through one section of framework. In these openings we will plant plants. We leave the lower row about pot without cuts that lashes of plants could hang down for edge of container, forming beautiful cascade.

8. We plant the chosen plants in the prepared cuts, watching that the soil could not get enough sleep freely from column when watering.

9. That our original flower bed was magnificent, in upper part of column it is necessary to plant several plants.
