Lush geraniums and herbs in pots and baskets make vibrant accents in front of the weathered old stone wall. This upcycled vertical garden can be created in no time at all using an old picket fence. Simply attach the wooden fence to the top of a wall and let it hang down loosely. Then attach baskets and flowerpots to the wooden slats with hooks and fill them with easy-care geraniums and herbs. A perfectly imperfect DIY wall display for those who love individuality and sustainable garden design. In summer, geraniums are considered the queen of bedding and balcony plants. There are many reasons for this: They are easy to care for, hardy and diverse. They also bloom abundantly and continuously from spring through to autumn. Upright geraniums - also known as zonal geraniums - are ideal for pots and containers.
