It's the little things

For my birthday, this year, my sister bought me a string of tea light holders. I do not mean to sound ungrateful but I had said to my family not to buy me 'things' for the house anymore as we had run out of space and sure enough they haven't been so I was surprised to receive this. Where on earth was I going to put them? Then I had a brainwave: if I could find a plant that didn't need much soil or watering I could use them as little pots to hang in the garden. We eventually found a plant that fitted the bill and hey presto into the garden they went (see below in comments). Later on when I was thanking my sister for the gift, I said that I hoped that she didn't mind but I had used the gift to hold plants. Isn't that what they are? she said No they're tea light holders. I replied. She went on to say that she knew I didn't want anything for the house so she thought this would look good in the garden with trailing plants in them. She did laugh when I explained that very few plants would survive in something so tiny with hardly any soil and without drainage. A gardener my sister is not:-)
