Shade Gardening: My shade garden progress, 1 by Noreaster

Yes, all the round planters are hypertufa. I think it fits really well into our rocky yard, so I made a bunch more this spring. The only problem is that I like to use mostly perennials in them because there aren't a lot of shade annuals that appeal to me. That means I have to find places for them in the ground at the end of the summer. That fountain you posted is interesting, too....I think it may be resin made to look like stone. Pretty real looking, too. Here are three more pots which might not be in the other pics. The hydrangea is still in the nursery liner...I am planning on burying it in the pot, and then moving it back into the large hypertufa container for one more season next year. That's the plan, anyway. I can't really plant anything in the ground up there because it is solid ledge.
