Thank you for the VERY detailed response! Smile

How did you get the base so accurate with cement? Is there a misting system hidden in the canopy?

- If one cannot think of adding anything, or to have any removed... If that defines beauty, then that is beautiful!!

I´m with RanaVenenosa, it is certainly a living sculpture...

Thank you for sharing.

can't imagine feeding frogs in this thing if there were frogs or other animals.
that would look real nice in my living room. then i could host a frog meet Smile
my other question would be how hard was it to plant.
