INDOOR GARDENING FORUM  
No new posts 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!
