containers
I grow lots of things in containers- my favorite is the cinder blocks that I have edged my garden with. I do chives, cilantro, basil,green onions, thyme- I could go on forever, but grow what you like to eat. I have even grown onions in them- one in each hole. I tried the window box planters, but they don't have enough root space- and the plastic gets too hot- in Texas you will have a bug problem. ProMix is the best potting medium you can buy. I use it to start seeds and as soil for everything- usually mixed with other bags of soils.
This photo was taken in the off season- during the summer the trellises and cages are full of tomatoes, cucumbers, beans, etc.
