In completing this task I wanted to leave a potted plant somewhere that would give it a good chance at a happy life. Meaning someplace where it would get adequate sun and water for survival, and where it was reasonably safe from being disposed of.
I went to Lowes with the idea of getting a hanging potted plant that I could suspend from an overpass somewhere, but that plan was derailed when I saw these awesome wall-mounted potted succulent arrangements. Succulents are pretty well suited to weather the drought months here without watering. And you know what has a lack of potted plants, at least in my neighborhood? TELEPHONE POLES.
I'll try to remember to update this proof in the months to come with status reports.

Potted plant

Seven months later, no care or watering whatsoever, and it's thriving. (Rotate head to view. Stupid camera phone.)
I like this. I shall delay my vote to see how it develops.
