apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

Because this Flower-Box Award scout did not see a single living plant, let alone a flowering one, in the last week due to her fieldtrip to the Black Rock Desert of Nevada, this week's award goes to the closest thing she saw: her own tent's fake garden.

Knowing there would no green matter for at least ten square miles, I sliced a 5' bamboo pole into four pieces and packed them into our camping gear. With some leftover fake flowers I'd used to decorate my evening coat, the Apartment Therapist and I rigged up a little garden in front of our tent. It's no flowerbox, but it's the only domestic landscaping I saw for days - and for that, I give us this week's award. skgr
