14. Wagon Wheels
Wagon wheels are an iconic part of the classic gardens, farms, and Southwestern decor, whether you recreate classic or new. They are ideal as a backdrop for a perennial bed grown or as a hanging hook or a background for an annual collection in pots because of their enormous size and beautiful spokes. When using new wooden wheels, be sure to seal the wood with varnish or paint. You may want to store them in the garage in the winter to reduce tooth decay and wear. With big wagon wheels, try hanging a small bright annual basket from the top for a cheerful, bright look.
