The hanging gardens

Having had every attempt over the last 10 years or so at a vegetable garden thwarted by baboons, porcupines, drought, caterpillars, snails, moles and who knows what else, I have embarked on a new strategy.
He Who Can Fix Anything is an obsessive collector of other people's rubbish at the local dump, and when I told him my plan for a new type of vegetable patch, he rushed off to see what could be salvaged. He came back with ten 20-litre containers, sawed off the top third, drilled drainage holes in the bottom and holes for strings in the sides and hung them on the crossbars of the 'roof' of the vegetable patch (all my idea).
Then it was time for a visit to the nursery, where we collected ten bags of potting soil, chicken manure pellets and an assortments of greens.
After filling each hanging pot with soil and fertiliser, the kale, herbs, spinach, cos lettuce and rocket were planted well out of reach of anything except a passing butterfly and watered well. Now time will tell!
