People have the urge to garden no matter where they live.
Many problems, such as lack of room, apartment or condo living, smaller yards, or lack of time and expertise, can be solved by growing plants in containers. When you stop and think about it, most of the plants we deal with on a day to day basis, are containerized. All of the plants we purchase at our favourite nursery or gardening centre are in containers, with the small exception of bare root stock. Many of us use hanging baskets, container plantings of all sorts on our patios, decks, steps, landings, sidewalks, windows, balconies etc. to incorporate many kinds of plants and veggies into our living spaces, inside and out. In order to get the maximum bloom and enjoyment from our containerized planting, here are some simple procedures to follow.
