"We want...a SHRUBBERY!"

"One that looks nice...and not too expensive." -the Knights who say "Ni!"

I would never think to grow a juniper shrub indoors, as seen in the July/August issue of COUNTRY LIVING Magazine.  Inspired by the book The Unexpected Houseplant by Tovah Martin, this arrangement depicted in Country Living has a simple sophistication that is so appealing.  A tall metal container similar to this 18" Aged French Flower Bucket was used as the planter.

This could be dressed with a ribbon to make a pretty Christmas planter as well.
Martin's book can be found at Amazon, and you can find a similar metal planter bucket above, but you will have to go find your own Shrubbery!
