This is an American Beauty that I decided to put in a pot.
On the left hand side is a blossom.
There are 2 X 4's screwed to the bottom and bolted through the sides.
Hemp rope was put around the post so the roots can get nutrients and have a structure to hold on to.
I have used burlap but it deteriorates too fast.
I have also used burlap and then covered it with shade cloth, the shade cloth can withstand the sun better and the burlap holds nutrients and moisture.
