    Thank you. We live in the desert of western Colorado.....hot and dry. 62 years ago, my mother in law gave me a cutting of her favorite mint plant....we lived in New England at the time. I had it there and then moved it when we moved west. It is flourishing in a large container where it only gets about 2-3 hours or sun per day. It is wonderful for mint tea and makes a wonderful mint jelly....

    I started my garden in containers and grow bags. I live in zone 9b SW Florida, but in 2023, I decided to grow my vegetable garden in raised beds. It's been a game changer for me. It's been a lot less work, less time watering, less time amending the soil. I can do more companion planting. I had little to no bugs last year. Overall, I thought I liked container gardening, but I love raised bed square foot companion gardening better.

    I love containers! I live in a very dry desert also. From Utah just above you. I love to layer my containers like a mini hugelkulture pot. And then plant in the top compost layer. Then mulch the top with wood chips. Containers in the desert sure do dry out fast. But having them layered with organic materials keep a lot more moisture. I love learning from you. Great information and beautiful videos and pictures as always! Great job!

Have grown tomatoes, eggplant, cucumber, string beans, cauliflower, pepper, corn, greens and root crops and so far I have been successful. I tried squash one year but somehow, I call it a loss. At any rate, I will continue growing my produce in containers.

    Up here in zones 3 & 4 I've been overwintering my herbs inside for years - oregano, rosemary, sage, parsley, chive... They need enough light - good, large, south facing windows. Or be willing to install grow lights. I prune the roots to keep pot size manageable. My Geraniums have been with me many years. They'll drop leaves and get all leggy but pruning them back in the spring does the trick. I only wish I could do fruit and vegetables, containers or not. Just never make it to harvest - they're a buffet for local wildlife.
