There are many advantage to having a container garden. One is that you can have beautiful flowers and delicious plants all year round. You can also have one without having a large garden or even a large space. Container gardens have less chance of having pests ruin your work and can add beauty to a space.
Putting your plants in a container means that you can move it into your home and bring it out for the appropriate season. For example, I have a Meyer lemon tree that I've planted in a large container and in the summer I place it out onto my patio so that it can receive the benefits of the sun and rain with hardly any fussing from me. During the winter, I pull it in, close to a window but I set up a lamp so that it can get the heat and sun that it needs.
Container gardens are a great way for you to keep a garden all year round and who doesn't like fresh plants in the middle of a dreary winter, to cheer up the environment?
