I gave it a grass skirt for the summer, well reeds I guess.
It may not last more than this summer but it was cheap. A close out item at one of the box stores.
The plants in the SOIL garden are fading in this 95+ heat but these guys are looking good so far.
Man she don't even look like the same old girl with that skirt on. You realize now you are going to have to keep buying these things, once you have seen how much better it made it look?
Never show your ignorance, by thinking you know it all
Time will tell.
It's not bamboo, the package said "dried reeds" and I'm sure it's not treated at all. If the reeds don't rot then the thin wires holding it together will rust and break apart, just depends on which happens first.
Looks good for now though.
Yep, I have always envied the guys out west who can build a wooden fence in those dry climates and 100 years from now, it is still there. Not where I live, anything wood outside, treated or not, is starting to need replacement in 5 or 6 years at the most.

Yeah, my brother lives in the mountains of Southern Colorado at about 8000 feet. He built a real nice wooden fence around his yard and not a speck of treated material in it. It's been 10 years at least and it still looks good, no rot or bugs.
