Container Planting - Ideas of What To Grow In Small Spaces

What can I plant in pots? This is a question we get asked weekly, so I thought I would share some ideas with you.
No space, no worries! If you live in a small apartment with no backyard and only a balcony, or your current backyard is chock a block already, container planting is a great space saving way to grow. 
Whether you are growing flowers or some veggies and herbs, here are some tips below to get started:
  • Take care with keeping water up to the pots as they can dry out more quickly than in the ground, especially hanging baskets.
  • The larger the pot the better, more room to grow! And make sure it is well draining to prevent the plants becoming water logged.
  • Fill the pots with the best quality soils and compost. A weekly seaweed treatment provides extra nutrients for your plant's growth.
  • Choose a nice sunny spot to place your pot and make sure it is protected from the wind.
Suggested varieties to sow in pots:
Flowers
Veggies + Herbs
I hope this blog post gives you some inspiration on what you can grow when you do not have a lot of space, or have run out of room in your garden beds. 
Happy gardening, Bec.
