Paul said , "Brenda and I are at our winter residence in Ft Myers, FL and we have very limited opportunity to have a garden. Since Brenda is an avid gardener, she got first dibs on the space we are allowed in our park, so we planted a nice little palm tree and some native scrubs in that space. I was longing for some way to have a model railroad and indoor space was also at a premium, so I came up with this idea for a garden railway in a plant pot. The plant pot is 21" in diameter and the train is N scale built with Kato Unitrack with a 8.5" radius. I found several species of succulents at the local Lowes as well as several small asparagus ferns and a spike moss to put on the summit of the "mountain" scene break which is made from two Tennessee fieldstone pieces. Here are some photos of the end result"

Looks great, Paul. And if what I hear about Florida is correct, that's probably the only rock in the state.
You are correct! I had to go to a garden center to get those! They sell them by the pound. Fortunately, the two for that tiny layout cost less than $4.00.
