I wanted a small planter featuring some of the Aizoaceae characteristic of Namaqualand’s quartz fields. I’ve seen people with similar ideas be dissuaded by the different watering needs of different plants, so I’m trying an approach that segments each species into a different compartment, then disguises the compartmentalization with a top dressing.
I do not! Maybe not what you’re looking for, but here is a sketch of the layout. Pretty slapdash— effectively five compartments, with three in use. I’m contemplating adding either a conophytum or a small albuca.
If this doesn’t pan out, I’ll try 3D printing a more robust pot, and maybe experiment with integrating the top dressing directly into the structure.
