Thanks guys! I got the planter at Kmart. It's 8" accross and the same width all the way down. I thought Cameo would be perfect for it, I never considered Twist of Lime, but I like it better with the three plants rather than just one. It looks more like a garden.

I looked for that planter last year when she posted a pic of it, but never found it.

That's cute
When I first saw the picture I was worried that there were already some brown leaves on Cameo and panicked for a second, then saw the shot from the top
Hope they all do great for you!

Everyone should have this planter, lol. Here's the link.

Chris sent some great plants! Cameo was 4 eyes, Twist of Lime was 6 eyes, and Touch of Class is one big fat eye. I shared one eye each of cameo and Lime for my housemate, she will suddenly be without plants when I move.
