ABSTRACT:
The garden comprises turkey fencing rolled into a cylindrical cage, placed upright on a corrugated surface, and lined with a vaporproof paper sleeve. The sleeve is filled with moist soil in which a perforated soaker is embedded and connected by a tube to the exterior of the liner. In a second form, a rigid support is enclosed in a large plastic bag containing soil. The support has a large circular base covered by the soil and a reduced-diameter mast extending upwardly through the center of the soil and out of the top of the bag. A soaker of the type noted above is buried in the soil, and the upper end of the bag is tied closed around the outside of the mast. The base of each support has an axial bore into which the upper end of the mast of another support can be inserted to stack this form of garden one upon the other. In use, small holes are cut in the liner or bag, and seeds or plants are planted in the exposed soil so that their sprouts can grow out of the holes.
