You can grow almost anything in a container?and do it almost anywhere! Whether you’re tight for space, time, money, or other resources or just want to keep things satisfyingly simple, container gardening is the perfect way not only to explore your love of plants but also to “grow” your knowledge.
Vegetables, fruit, and herbs, such as beans, berries, cucumbers, lemons, peppers, salad greens, squashes, strawberries, tomatoes, common cooking herbs, and many more! The possibilities for growing food in containers are endless and also include root vegetables like carrots, onions, and potatoes.
How to start? This is where the Container Gardener’s Handbook comes in. Created by The Old Farmer’s Almanac, America’s longtime trusted gardening resource, this third book is part of a best-selling gardening series that began with the extremely popular Vegetable Gardener’s Handbook (now its sixth printing!) and was followed by the beautiful and inspirational Flower Gardener’s Handbook. This newest book is a one-stop guide to container gardening success. Inside is everything that you’ll need to know about growing vegetables, fruit, herbs, and ornamentals in containers to produce mouthwatering harvests and stunning displays. Filled with beautiful photos that make the book itself a joy to behold, the Container Gardener’s Handbook features a simple style and language that opens up a world of fun and creativity for gardeners of all experience levels.
