This post is part of a sponsored series from the Home Depot.

Yes! Even give the crazy weather and all its moving around, my Flower Tower from the Home Depot Garden Club is thriving! I actually think it has adapted to life in Denver, or perhaps it’s made friends with the dog.

Alas everything comes to an end, at the end of many things come the credits. Or the bloopers. Not to mention a Star Wars-esque sword fight.

Now, for reals. How many of you said, while watching the video: So THAT is how she pronounces her last name??? I know. Everyone is surprised.

As I have mentioned, this project is great for beginners and also doesn’t take a ton of equipment.

Here is a handy list for you to print out and take to the Home Depot with you:

(1) Yardguard 4 ft. x 50 ft. 14-Gauge Welded Wire (we cut this down shorter)
(1) Scotts 4 ft. x 120 ft. Landscape Fabric
(1) Wiss Tinner’s Snips
(1) Tenax 7 in. Black Fence Ties – 50 Pack
(1) Garden Spade
(1) Large Flower Pot
(1) Utility Knife
(1-2) Bags Potting Soil
Plants (as needed, we used 2 flats)
Work Gloves

Here’s what’s cool about the Flower Tower. We did it as a family from beginning to end. Even during the decision to do this as a sponsored project, we sat down and agreed we wanted to do it together and have fun doing it. Then we built it together, have taken care of it in all this weird April snow (4 more inches are coming tonight), and my boys even helped me edit the videos I have posted. Together.

Every time I played back the “Luke, I am your father” bit, Dex snort-laughed.

So, yes, we are really looking forward to summer, when temperatures in Denver will soar over 100 and we will be yearning for some snowflakes to cool us off. We have already started mapping out what we will do in the backyard, in our small raised urban garden, and with all my other potted planted on the patio.

AND we’re looking forward to being masters of our gardening universe. Thanks Home Depot!
