I think this is such a clever idea. You can usually pick up old wooden ladders at garage sales and vintage antique stores. If you bought four ladders and made a square and used the ladders like this picture and planted herbs in these spaces and then used the inside of the square to plant a little garden. You could have several tomato plants, greens, some squash. Actually, you could plant more than you would realize. You could also make a triangle instead of a square. I think this is such a cute idea and a great one for the backyard gardener who doesn't has a lot of room.
In the spaces in the ladder you could use herbs and flowers. Have two ladders flowers and two herbs. I can see this little garden in my mind's eye and I see a tall tripod in the center with green beans or some vining plant growing up the tripod or a small group of tall sunflowers or a pedestal with a concrete statue on it.
You can take something as simple as this and turn it into a darling garden that you would love visually and the food and herbs and flowers would send you soaring!
Happy Friday! xo
