Creating a garden doesn’t have to be expensive
My name is Wema Mojar from Mississauga , Ontario , Canada . We have an abandoned consortium that had become an eyesore , so I grow it into a classic small infinite garden using old Mary Jane , some drivel bags , and other inexpensive cloth .
I go most of the vegetables from seedling that I grew in my mini - greenhouse . I combined flowers , foliage , and veggie in differentcontainers , and they turned out fantastic !
Magenta petunias ( Petuniahybrida , annual ) , violet vervain ( Verbenahybrid , annual ) and orange nasturtiums ( Tropaeolummajus , one-year ) offer lots of color and beauty , with productive veggies growing behind them .
Every infinite is satiate with plants , and Wema evidence you do n’t ask to pass a lot of money on a garden like this . A little twine and a few pickle transformed these plastic pots intohanging basket .
And the veg are well-chosen too ! Thistomato plantis certainly thriving . Many vegetables will do great arise incontainers , making all sort of quad potential gardens .
Developing Lycopersicon esculentum are thriving in their container home .
mass lots of container togetheris a great way to give the look of an in - dry land garden bottom on a slab of concrete .
Almost anything can be used as a flora container as long as it will defy soil and you’re able to put drain holes in it . Thesegreen beansare thriving in a garbage bag !
Nasturtiumsare beautiful , and they produceedible flowersand leafage that can be added to salads .
More happy plants , two of them growing in the most commodious container imaginable — a traveling bag of pot intermixture !
Delicious , nutritiousgreensas far as the eye can see .
Here ’s a terminal reminder that you do n’t need expensive pots or plants to transform a space into a beautiful , productive garden .
