Planters I said to you planters sir!
For those of you who don't frequent my zombie urban gaming board thread, thought this might be of interest from a more general gaming perspective.
Planters:
i) Take one long lego brick.
ii) Cut four pieces of plastic-rod to just overlap the edge of the lego brick. (right angle the joins to taste!).
iii) Glue edging to brick:

iv) Trim some aquarium plants down.
v) Dryfit into three of the holes, (even spacing)

vi) Cut a piece of paper/thin card and slide this into the open brick section and under the edging.
vii) Use pva glue and gravel to create the substrate.

viii) Take a sharp point and make three holes in the card/substrate to poke the plants into.

Remove the plants and you’re ready for painting the planter, (painted pics later, didn’t get chance to paint them before we played).
