And it has irrigation! Hopefully later this weekend I'll get the seeds actually in there with the wife. Then just a few more spikes to hold the 1/4" tubing down and let it grow. Oh ohmnoms, you had best be tasty or I'll be sorely disappointed.
Slippery Slope Rooftop Micro Farm, Brooklyn - Back in 2009, I helped sow the seeds in these planters on a Brooklyn rooftop. This is not a typical built-in planter box. These flowers are growing in portable sub-irrigated planters (SIPs) of the do-it-yourself tote box type.
I was absolutely amazed with the results back in 2009 when this garden was installed. The owner developed a truly outstanding planting plan for this spectacular garden. It was as creative as anything I have seen on the web. There are over 70 SIPs in this rooftop garden growing perennials, flowers and fresh vegetables.
The garden deserves an award of some kind, it is that good. Stay tuned. It will bloom again in the summer of 2011.
I still don't know how Aunt Glenna kept her sanity after dealing with the likes of us every summer. (Heather, Crystal, Becky, and Myself in front of Aunt Glenna's home on Sewell Mountain)
