I have a strawberry pot but do not want to plant strawber...

What would be some other good ideas for this planter? It’s will get about 3-4 hours of direct sunlight a day. This will be my first time ever planting in something like this so any advice or tips will be greatly appreciated! Thank you in advance.

I've always loved seeing succulent arrangements in strawberry pots. Most plants with a fairly shallow root system would work well, and succulents fit the bill in that respect. But depending on the size of your strawberry pot and what it's made of, you might need to make some modifications to ensure they don't end up overwatered. Echeverias, Graptoveria, and pretty much any rosette-type succulent is perfect for side pockets. Adding some trailing succulents to the higher pockets will look great once they start spilling over the sides. Different colors and textures usually end up creating the most stunning arrangements ☺️
@stephongreg I love this idea! Now I’m on marketplace looking for a strawberry planter lol!
@stephongreg my strawberry planter is terracotta and it’s a pretty large one. It’s has 3 levels of plants on the side. Thank you for ideas! You’ve started me off on a great foot! Stayed tuned for pics to come of what I’ve created thanks to your help! ❤️🌵🪏
