Terra Cotta Face Pots Add Personality to the Garden

Lindsay ~ 15 March 2009

It’s in our nature to anthromorphize things, granting human characteristics to non-human creatures and objects, so why not make it easy to add a bit of personality to your plants?

You might remember the tree faces we looked at a couple of years ago. Well, this is along the same lines.

These terra cotta planters come with faces on the front. Once you’ve got your shrubs growing, the greenery will look like hair sprouting atop the pot’s “head.”

You can get the terra cotta face pots with different expressions, such as (from left to right in the picture) “cheerful,” “old man,” and “surprised.” I’ll leave it to you to decide which type of hair (which type of plant) you should grow to suit the various expressions.
