I can ramble on about pots for quite a while so apologies for the long video! There's still lots to mention.
Pots are brilliant for filling spaces. Place them on your door step, balcony, patio or use them to raise plants in your beds.
Things to remember;
Don't let your pots dry out
Use good soil that drains well and retains moisture
Use a large pot
Make room for your roots and help maintain moisture levels. (Watch your back when moving them)
Terracotta pots breath
They can dry out with a strong wind. Line the pots inside or buy a glazed pot.
Plastic pots may not be as attractive but they can help preserve moisture.
Don't over crowd your pot
Lasagne planting is a great idea but the foliage can get very over crowed and messy.
Keep the soil
You can reuse the soil for 1-2 years but it is always a good practise to mixing in fresh compost/soil/grit
Use your imagination
There are many brilliant ways to plant in containers. Pots can be expensive but you can use whatever you have that will hold soil. Hollowed out tree trunks, old pipes, butler sinks, wheel barrows and so much more
