Paul O'Keeffe Posted February 8 Report Share Posted February 8 Hi guys, I'm looking for something a bit like in the picture in the UK to make my first bog garden on a balcony. Nothing big. Does anyone have any sites that may do the below? Biggish pot and deep tray. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
partisangardener Posted Friday at 08:43 AM Report Share Posted Friday at 08:43 AM (edited) Do you want to keep it all year round on the balcony? Your setting will have problems with frost. You might try another approach for your bog. Less substrate, one tray, less maintenance and less weight for transportation. https://www.srgc.org.uk/forum/index.php?topic=18726.0 Edited Friday at 08:43 AM by partisangardener Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tropfrog Posted Friday at 04:43 PM Report Share Posted Friday at 04:43 PM Hmm. We don't know what species op wants to keep. For many temperate species frost is not a problem, quite the oposite. Br Magnus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
partisangardener Posted Saturday at 08:36 PM Report Share Posted Saturday at 08:36 PM This displayed pot and tray will not withstand a good frost. Both will crack. That´s why I asked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tropfrog Posted Saturday at 09:27 PM Report Share Posted Saturday at 09:27 PM Ahh. It looked like plastic to me. Now I see, terrakotta and glass. I fully agree. Not good If you get deep frost at your place. I know everything about it. BR Magnus from Sweden. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
