Container Garden Featuring Swiss Chard
I love the combination of flowers my daughter used in her old tin container. My husband said his mother had one similar to this and she used it to boil water in to wash clothes.
Kristin has used Swiss chard for height and then purple ornamental pepper and moss ross in the front, I'm not sure but I think the lavender flower is a pinta flower.
The use of the purple ornamental pepper and lavender flower on either side of the Swiss chard was perfect.
The choice of the flowers has done very well where this container sets as it gets direct Kansas sun in the afternoon. The perfect choice for her front porch!

Frequently asked questions
Have a question about this project?
I love this! I have an old container my mother had and used for many things. I was wondering if she put holes in the bottom for drainage.
Do I have to put a liner on tins before putting soil?
