I found this old BBQ and decided to fill it with drought-hardy plants.

The bottom of the grill is filled with various sized stones, then a layer of sand and finally mulched with red shale for sharp drainage for the Semps.

The shelves where taken off and turned around to make a tray, a few small holes where drilled for drainage, then filled with well-rotted manure, planted with thyme and mulched with small pebbles.

For the winter, we will stack straw bales around it and fill it in with leaves and snow for protection.

Great way to keep your old barbecue out of the landfill!
