Next, add a layer of sand.

Then arrange your plants, largest plants first.

            Continue planting along the edges, working your way around.

         Dustin’s favorites include succulents, moss, Dusty Miller, and Allyssm.

A tiny bird needs a tiny birdhouse!

                                                   Wow. He did it. So can you.
