You can purchase plastic or terra cotta pots at a local nursery, or you can go hunting in your own home. Either way, the container, is the first step. Even you find something that doesn’t have holes in the bottom, you can always drill these yourselves to allow for water drainage. If you have a metal container, you will want to be careful that these do not receive afternoon sun as the metal will heat up and hurt the flowers and plants that are living in this. When you begin to plant, you will want to fill the container about halfway and set the plants in and then add more soil to cover the roots just as you would normally in a regular garden. Next water and fertilize the flowers and plants to give them a good starting. Fill the container two-thirds of the way up and then begin planting the seeds. After it, you will just need to do regular maintaining such as deadheading, fertilizing and watering to suit the weather. Use container gardens to grow more and add even more life to your home!
