Cool Benefits to a Staircase Plant Stand

Fast & Frugal

  • The materials to build the stand cost just $100 Canadian. It will be less in the United States.
  • It’s designed for a beginner builder and can be made in an hour or two.

Kitchen Garden-Friendly

  • So many different fruits, vegetables, and herbs grow nicely in containers.
  • On a stand like this one, you can move the pots around to suit the light needs of the various plants and keep everyone happy.
  • It’s also very handy to have everything in one place for watering.

Tons of Growing Space

  • If you make use of the steps, side supports, and the top copper bar, there is a lot of room for potted, climbing, and hanging plants.

Bonus Tip

  • If you get the wood cuts done at the store, you should be able to fit all the materials in a mid-size car. That’s what I did.

Year-round Use

  • Use it outdoors in the summer and bring it indoors for winter plant storage in front of sliding glass doors.
