- Use "found",
thrift store or garage sale objects as containers and garden accents.
An old pail, trough, wheelbarrow, wagon, driftwood, stones, old
stumps, tools and more can be used as a decorative planter, accent
or even a birdbath.

- Divide crowded
perennials to expand your collection. Good candidates include: agapanthus,
daylilies, ornamental grasses grasses, chrysanthemums, physostegia,
hosta, bleeding heart, irises, cannas, lamb's ears, peonies and more.

- Give new
life to a broken pot as an interesting accent around a plant
to create the appearance of a partially submerged planting.
