Growing in pots is easy and economical. Start seeds indoors, move tropicals and peppers indoors to overwinter, have year round kitchen gardens and houseplants, hang gardens to save space, enable when you're sick or disabled, decorate and photograph them with ease.
This list is for gardeners, novice to expert- who grow in containers anytime-outdoors on balconies, porches and decks, courtyards and patios, or as indoor houseplants.
Emphasis is on "City Jungles" but all welcome! Growing info, tips,ideas, inspiration and motivation, seed, bulb, plant exchanges encouraged. Discuss ideas for recycling, painting and making pots, be creative and frugal!
