I was thinking about growing a plant or two up in the top of a tree. That way it will get maximum sun. If I can just find a tree that is really easy to climb and put a wooden pallet up in the very top to make a platform, then I can tie down a plant or two. What are you thoughts? Would a 5 gallon pot be big enough to grow a decent size plant?
