Container Garden
I am a self confessed black thumb in the garden. But I never really lose hope that whatever I plant will survive...somehow. So I keep it small and simple. I know there are lots of ideas for container gardening on the internet. Here are a few things I learned. Key words, bush, compact, space saver, will work well for container gardens. I decided to try tomato, cucumber, green pepper and lettuce with a few marigolds for color. You can use anything for a container garden just make sure it has drainage. Use lighter colored containers since dark ones absorb heat. You will have to water a container garden more often, check daily. So with all that in place, here I go, hoping for at least a tomato or two! Happy gardening!
