How to Choose a Container Garden

1. Container gardens make it possible to grow flowers, fruits and vegetables in areas where a traditional garden would be impossible. With these gardens, even your apartment balcony can be rich in vegetation.

2. When choosing a container garden, it's important to keep materials in mind. Cheap plastics may deteriorate in UV light, and terra cotta can dry out quickly. Glazed ceramic pots are an excellent choice, as are redwood, cedar and fir containers. Other woods may be susceptible to rot.

3. A raised garden bed is a lifesaver for gardeners battling with poor soil. These containers let you build your garden above ground, giving you complete control over the soil texture and ingredients. Raised garden beds also drain better and offer an extended gardening season.

4. Some raised gardens are designed more like tables, bringing the garden up to your level. These styles usually offer a storage shelf underneath. They're an excellent option for older folks who don't want to bend over.

5. You should also keep in mind the size and number of plants you plan to grow. This will determine the size of container you use, which should have a capacity between 15 and 120 quarts. Remember that deep rooted vegetables require deep pots, and make sure your container has adequate drainage.

Benefits of raised bed gardening include improved soil conditions, higher yields, easy access, an extended growing season, and better pest control. Plus, you can set up your raised garden bed just about anywhere and with less effort than a traditional garden because you won't have any digging to do. You won't even have to worry about soil conditions. For all these reasons, a raised garden bed is ideal for backyards, rooftop gardens, schools and community centers.

Assembly is easy and requires only common household tools. Furniture will be shipped with all necessary fasteners and easy-to-follow instructions. Carefully read the instructions and acquaint yourself with the wood parts, bolts and screw sizes before starting assembly of your furniture.

To set up your garden more charming, wheelbarrow planters, wagon planters, garden water fountains, wishing well planters, and planter boxes can also choose together.
