Tip: Line your wooden containers and window boxes with a layer of heavy-duty plastic, adding in a few drain holes. By doing this you will extend the life of your wood planter by as much as two years. Also, raise them 2.5 cm (1 in.) above all surfaces using small rocks, pot stands, strips of wood or inverted saucers.
