Make the Best of a Small Patio with a Vertical Planter Denis408 has a tiny back patio. To make better use of the space and brighten up the view out the back door, he built a vertical garden using a wooden pallet, a pair of eight foot garden stakes, soil, and starter plants. It's a simple, pretty construction that adds a bit of life to an otherwise wasted area. Check out his blog entry if you're interested in details on the construction.
