Flower Gardening & Garden Design
The joys of gardening range from planning all winter to the end product in the fall. Your garden may cover many acres, or it may be no larger than a small room, but in either case, it is your garden – to change, care for, and use as your refuge.

| CONTAINER GARDENING FORUM |
|
|
Container Gardening
Container gardening is similar to regular gardening (ie. use good soils and so on....place shade plants in shaded areas, place sun plants in sunny areas etc.).
But, watering and other considerations are so much different with container plants.
Container gardening allows more versatility than any other type of gardening. Whether it's because you don't or can't have a garden, or you just want to add an extra touch to the one you have, container gardening has it's own set of care needs. Share your container ideas, discoveries and problems here!
