Though I have 2 other gardens planted, I still do a lot of container gardening in my driveway. Hey, it's close to the house and always gets the most attention. I have 50 tomatoes planted here this year. If the do well, I will be doing lots of canning.
I do succession planting with things like green onions and lettuces. They do very well.
I have blueberries, beets, eggplants, potatoes, olives, bay leaves and every herb you can think of planted here.
Though the pepper plants are still small, they are covered in peppers. The zucchini likes it here too.
Tomatoes, basil and marigolds; all started from seed.
None of my blossoms have set yet but I expect that to happen soon.
I plant basil under all of the tomatoes.
It's sprinkling this morning and a certain puppy won't walk 5 feet on the wet patio to get to the dry spot under her umbrella.
Beans growing up the light post.

Cilantro, basil, tarragon and a cucumber grow in these pots. I even have celery and okra growing in pots. Are you a pot planter too?

I'll do a post about it in a few days.
Teddy, you are to much,lol.
I've had several bay trees, but the winter always gets them.
Other than tomatoes, we grow all the rest of our stuff in the ground. We did just build a herb container garden though.
I wish I could have blueberries in pots here but this is on the border to what they can manage a normal winter so I must have them in the ground. Don't matter what I do, lots of grass grows up in the bushes and the plants aren't happy.
50 tomatoes :-) :-) Yes You will have a lot of cannng to do if You have a good tomato year :-)
Have a great day!
Christer.
