Practically anything can be made into a planter, or container garden.

Important factors to consider when choosing a container, or pot, are correct size, adequate drainage and good quality organic potting mix.

A good quality potting mix is essential for the health of plants in pots. Potting mixes are scientifically formulated with specific nutrients and water holding materials.

Make sure to use a specialty mix for plants such as native plants, succulents, and berries.
