Container gardening is becoming more and more popular! Changes in materials, the fact that so many more homes have patios, and new plants grown especially to look good in pots are revolutionizing this type of gardening.

The linked article from Bart Ziegler's Garden Journal column highlights these changes and gives tips on three-season planting and using ornamental grasses. The second link takes you to a great Garden Design article that will forever change the way you look at your pots. Time is waning in northern climes to plant in containers, but all of you in temperate regions can plant now for fall and winter color. Have fun!
