I sucessfully grew two different varieties of tomatoes this year in pots. Our neighbors grow vegetables in hardware store buckets. It was very nice to enjoy eating tasty home grown vegetables- hoping to have the same sucess in the 2018 season.Helpful Reply -

I have a garden just for hubby that can't get up the two steep tiers to our veggie garden. Big pots are the trick. I grew many herbs, lettuce, peppers and tomatoes that he could watch grow and help tend. He really liked the jungle I created on the sides of the driveway for him. Also did tuberous begonias in two window boxes on top of the fence and hanging strawberry plants on shepherd hooks and a bird bath and feeders. We planted five pots of hibiscus that are wintering in the back room right now, and a couple of hanging tuberous begonias, as well as two huge half barrels of elephant ears and coleus to round out everything out front. Everyone around had to check out our mini jungles last summer.Helpful Reply -
