For container gardening ideas, scan the internet, the library or
a bookstore. The challenge is to come up with a lovely container
garden plan. There are a widespread collection of containers
available for your container garden. These range in size from
small-scale house-plant pots to sizeable boxes and planters.
Equally varied are the materials from which they are made. These
include wood, glass, clay, aluminum, bamboo, straw, plastic,
fiberglass, terra cotta, tin, cast iron, zinc, copper, and
brass, each with select advantages and disadvantages. What you
choose will depend on availability, price, background, and

pots.

pots, kettles, pails, jugs, casks, vases, crocks, jam tubs,
barrels and nail kegs, Japanese fish tubs, aged sinks, bathtubs,
