The Incredible Plant Stand
-
Available online at Wind & Weather for about $27, you can purchase an "invisible" plant stand that makes it appear as though four pots (not included) are delicately balancing on top of each other. Each pot seems to be tipping, ready to fall at any moment, but the stand is sturdy. The stand holds one 4-inch pot, two 6-inch pots, and one 10-inch pot.
Deluxe Tractor Scoot with Bucket Basket
-
A slightly more expensive item, the Deluxe Tractor Scoot is approximately $100 at Gardener's Supply Company. The Scoot allows the gardener to work anywhere in the garden in a seated position. The Scoot has a red steel, slotted, swivel seat with a 3-position handle for easy pulling. The front wheels are steerable and the tires pneumatic. A bucket basket attached to the Scoot is large enough for a 5-gallon pail that is perfect for weeds.
