I thought it might look better than the plastic tub that currently holds the ficus. Sure looked like the ficus would fit.
So I cleaned up the urn and bought some spray paint designed for plastic. The paint cost less than $5.
I thought sage green looked a lot better than the metallic silver. The urn, which looked as if it were originally a sand color, took less than a can. After the paint dried, I sat the ficus's tub inside the urn. Before I repot the ficus, I want to see how it looks.
Looks pretty good, considering the condition of the ficus (which someone gave me a few years ago). But I wondered how much an urn like this cost? The brand Grosfillex was stamped on its inside. I did some Googling and found these Grosfillex urns that are about the same size as mine:
They're not quite the same, but they're similar. I figure mine would have cost forty-something new.
I guess I got a good deal.
