Went out to cut a bit of firewood on this beautiful day ....

... and eyeballed this neat old Monticello Dairy bottle peaking out of the leaves. My wife wants to keep it as a terrarium, so she wins the prize!

Thanks for all the nice comments! I think I will go probe that area one day next week just to see what turns up.

 

[Tuberale]

Hope you use a plastic tip on your probe. Wouldn't want to add more air vents to any other bottles.

Those ready mades are Nice Finds!
This one is still thriving after 5 months...
HH to you

I think you should clean that bottle out Rob, fill it with white sand and display it in a window!
This way you can enjoy the graphics on it!
Dave

The same advice can be applied to your grimy bottle too Herbie!
