Customer Reviews

Useful and informative for a Container Gardening Newbie

The Ulimate Container Garden spent more time discussing what pot(s) to use than container gardening per se. For me being new to container gardening (left my cutting gardens and flower beds when we moved to the city) I found this book extremely useful. The use of photos also was a plus helping me transition from flowerbeds to containers.

Useful gardening source for urban dwellers

Being someone who lives in the city but still enjoys seasonal flowers, I like this book because it appears to take the guess work out of what plants work well together in containers. With reasonable care as prescibed in the book, anyone can have a nice looking balcony or patio.
