I remember Riz using old baskets etc to grow stuff in and it looking really nice!!

So I came across this on Gumtree, not sure if anyone lives nearby but they could go pick it up for free and use it for plants!! :)

Ze, this might suit you better regards ladybird larvae... your little one can watch ladybird larvae hatch and become ladybirds, then you can release them in the garden :sunny:

although I just saw that you have to buy the larvae separately so it might be more expensive :( when I first read it it looked like it came with the larvae. but anyway it's an idea :)

wouldn't it be funny if you hatched the larvae and the lady birds flew away into next door neighbours garden and feasted on there aphids :)
