Anyone have a good source for planter boxes for 2 inch railings?

Or can recommend a plastic planter I could mount with brackets? I have friends that could fabricate a simple cage to hang and hold any plastic planter. My plan is to use the whole length of my balcony which receives East and South sun.

My Dichondra flats are going bare in the Tortoise box. The hatchling ibera's are trampling them and eating them like children should eat their greens.

I just seeded the flats with Mediterranean mix from Tort Stuff. We'll see what happens.

Yeah Phil, I think you owe us some photo updates of your sweet little Greek chiclet trio, too, when you're done attaching your planter boxes. They must be growing up and running all over the place! :D

Sorry I'm no help with the boxes, but good luck finding some useful ones. ;)

Yes, pic updates are overdue, Steph. You are probably just giddy over your new rating.

Just moved into my new man cave. One of the first things to move in was the Tort table. Room for a bigger one.

The kids got to run around on some real grass today while I was setting up their Tortoise bath. They are getting quicker. Pretty good at left turns.

Their little shells are starting to really flare out like fenders and their scutes are growing. They receive a wide range of fresh greens from the store plus I figured out that they will only eat Opuntia when it is shredded into strips. Plenty of Opuntia here in AZ.
