broadening the habitat pallet


Paolo has suggested a more achievable habitat tower design - using discarded pallets, like this one shown at the Hampton Court Palace Flower Show three years ago this week.

Well, we have the pallets, but we could still do with the following to put within them:
  • any sort of untreated dead wood, e.g. pruned branches, logs
  • terracotta plant pots or (even better) pipe sections
  • those sorts of bricks with holes in them (I'm sure there's a technical term)
  • bamboo canes and other tube-like woody plant stems
  • straw
  • corrugated cardboard
  • ivy plants
We will install all this on the morning of next Saturday (11 July) between 10 and 12, i.e. before our Summer Fun Day - any help and/or loan of tools is appreciated!
