Container plants

These plants also grow in a pot or tub, on the balcony, the patio or a paved yard. The container is what counts: big enough for the roots and with a drainage hole so water never stands. Soil in a pot dries out much faster than in a bed, so in high summer you often water every day. And because the soil in a container is limited, it needs feeding through the season.
