A class of elementary students started a class project to make planters to take home and wanted to have plants in them that were easy to take care of, so it was decided to use cactus plants. The students were each given a greenware pottery clown planter that they had professionally glazed and fired at a class outing so they could see the process. It was great fun.

They planted the cactus seeds in the finished planters and watched as they grew nicely. Unfortunately, they were not allowed to take them home. See attachment to understand why.

 

The cacti were removed and replaced with small ivy plants. The children

were then allowed to take them home.

 

The teacher said cactus seemed like a good idea at the time... :-)
