Hypertufa Pots

Many gardeners eager to search fun and easy ways to make our gardens and the stations look spectacular. Using hypertufa offers gardeners a wide variety of imaginative ways to express themselves in the most original, artistically. Who would not want to create their own pots? How about original pieces of garden art? Perhaps stepping stones? Hypertufa makes this possible.

So what is hypertufa?

It is a kind of artificial stone. You can do this by mixing sand, peat, various volcanic aggregates, and cement. It is lighter than stone or concrete, whatever the cold of winter, or how hot the summer, if properly prepared, hypertufa is the freezing and melting of the evidence.

How do I make hypertufa?

There are several ways to hypertufa (see link below). What they all have in common is that they are made by mixing perlite, peat moss, and Portland cement in a plastic tub. How it is light and depends on how many parts of each ingredient you use.

Your basic mixture consists of three parts perlite, three parts peat moss and two parts Portland cement.

One option would be super light by three parts Portland cement, four parts peat moss and perlite four parts.

Mix dry ingredients with enough water to form the cement that looks like cottage cheese moist.

All you need is enthusiasm, willingness to get a little dirty, and love for your garden. Just follow the instructions carefully. (The link below provides many ideas and detailed instructions for you.)
