As I have previously written, I am a great fan of Chanticleer. As a part of Gardening Gone Wild's recent Garden Bloggers' Design Workshop on Container Gardening, there is a short post with insights from Dan Benarcik, the horticulturalist who designs many of Chanticleer's inspiring containers. Despite their "over the top couture" appearance, he does try to make their maintenance as simple as possible--planting once for the season, fertilizing once a month, and watering once a day.
