Diamond Frame
So you like diamonds? Hang a square frame by the corner and BINGO, you're on the money.
The frame was another I bought from a charity shop for a few dollars. The glass was cracked and the picture stained, so these were removed, and the frame given a lick of paint.
The plants are miniature 'Crown of Thorns' (Euphorbia millii), sometimes sold as 'Fairy Lights.' I planted two colours in the one pot. They flower 12 months a year.The plants are in a cheap and flimsy 12cm plastic pot, which was dropped it into the terra-cotta pot. A plastic pot doesn't dry out at quickly as the porous clay. You can, of course, stop clay pots drying out quickly by giving the inside a coat of paint.
If you find the lines of the weatherboards distracting, just add a plain back to the frame
