Enjoy a Vegetable Container Garden

Grow a feast even in a small space with containers of vegetables, herbs and edible flowers.

Edible combo

Grow vegetables, herbs and edible flowers for your kitchen in this pretty container garden. Use a large container and allow plenty of space between plants to encourage growth. Plants include oregano, thyme, sage, 'Patio Hybrid' tomato and 'Jack Be Little' pumpkin.

Tip: Pots, by nature, limit gardening space, so look for space-saving compact or bush-type vegetable varieties. 'Bush Champion' tomato grows only about 2 feet tall but produces fruits that can weigh up to a pound; 'Red Robin' bears cherry tomatoes on a 1-foot-tall plant. 'Salad Bush' cucumber grows only about a third the size of a regular cucumber vine.
