Portable garden with wheelbarrow planters observed
A friend creates a mobile garden using three to four toy wheelbarrows filled with soil placed along her steps and terrace to relocate geraniums or other plants as desired. A report notes social trends on marriage and festive parties with music and novelty foods at a Roosevelt hotel event.
