Yes, you can definitely grow strawberries in a hanging basket! They actually do really well if you set them up right.

Edible flowers can really wow your dish, and they're super easy to grow in containers! You don't need a huge garden or perfect soil - just a few containers, potting mix, and a sunny spot.

Can you grow crisp, leafy greens in just about anything? I wanted to find out. I tested 6 different containers side by side, from shallow trays to grow bags, to see which one actually worked best for salad greens.

Not every garden gets full sun, and that’s okay. If you’ve got a shady balcony, porch, or patio, don’t write off growing food.

Yes, you can grow ginger in a container, and it actually works really well! In fact, if you're in a cooler climate or don’t have great soil, a container is often the better option. Ginger (Zingiber officinale) isn’t as hard to grow as people think. #ginger

Growing celery in containers takes a bit more patience than other vegetables. It can be a little tricky, but with the right container and soil, they're well worth it. Homegrown celery is delicious; so much better than the store-bought ones. #celery

Yes, you definitely can grow borage in containers! Borage (Borago officinalis) might look like it belongs in a wild corner of your garden, but it grows equally well in containers. #borage #edibleflowers #medicinal

Yep, you definitely can grow nasturtiums in containers, and they might actually do better in a container than in the ground!


Nasturtiums are one of those plants that seem to grow wherever you throw the seeds. #edibleflowers #nasturtium #nasturtiums

Ever scooped soil straight from the garden to fill a container? You’re not alone. It seems like a good idea, right? It's free, right there, and full of life. But here’s the catch: using garden soil in pots almost always leads to problems. #pottingmix #soil

Sick of soggy store-bought greens that wilt two days after you bring them home? Try growing your own! You can grow arugula in containers with very little effort, and once you do, you’ll wonder why you ever paid for salad mix. #arugula

Tired of planting vegetables that shoot up and flop over before they give you anything useful? Try broad beans. Growing broad beans in pots is surprisingly low-maintenance. A wide container, some nice potting soil, and a bit of sun is enough to get started.

Absolutely! Calendula (Calendula officinalis), often called pot marigold, is one of the easiest plants to grow in pots. It's compact, easy to look after, and super useful. If you’ve got a sunny spot and a decent pot, you can grow calendula almost anywhere.

Can you grow garlic in containers? You bet you can! I’ve done it myself plenty of times when I ran out of space in the garden or just couldn’t be bothered clearing a new bed.

Some leafy greens just don’t do well in pots. Growing bok choy in containers, though, is a different story! Lettuce wilts if you miss a watering. Spinach bolts when it gets too warm. And trying to grow anything fussy in a shallow container? Usually a waste of time.

Container gardening is a practical way to grow your own food, especially if space is limited. Radishes are a great crop to start with. They’re quick to grow, don’t need much room, and give you a reliable harvest in just a few weeks. #radish
