What can you create out of Hypertufa?
Just about anything. With endless possibilities, hypertufa has become a favorite annual workshop for many of the garden club members.
Originally invented for alpine gardens in place of heavy, expensive antique watering troughs, it quickly became sought after by gardeners.
In addition to planters & pots, you can create almost anything you can think of out of hypertufa. Some great uses in your garden are stepping-stones, planter bases and risers/feet, trays, bird baths, art accents, etc. You’re only limited by your imagination.
Then, because we know you will absolutely want to—watch for the next workshop and be sure to attend. You will definitely want to make one for your garden too!
All it takes is a little bit of ingenuity and spending a few minutes looking through your kitchen cabinets to find the perfect mold for you hypertufa planter. In this case, a blue bundt cake pan is going to make a beautifully shaped planter.
