In today's world, where there is a greater need for environmental consciousness, creativity, and sustainability should go hand in hand to accomplish this, especially regarding gardening.

What I used to achieve this?

An old tyre:

The main starting material, tyres are all over the place as waste all I did was to pick one and transform it into something nice.

Saw:

Essential cutting material, tyres can be difficult to cut sometimes but some saws will cut through it eventually. We need the saw to cut the tire Into two.

Spray paint:

Meant to color the tyre Into a color that is attractive compared to the initial color on it, the color has to also fit the background.

Soil and manure:

Soil and manure is very important and it is also important to make use of the best possible soil type for planting

Flowering plant:

I choose a drought-tolerant plant because of the climatic conditions in this place.
