Mini-Container Garden Highlights How Small Spaces Can Become the Perfect Place for Plants

When we think of flower gardens, so often we think of massive homes with plenty of room for landscape, sometimes with beds that sprawl across their acreage. But, with the rise of renters and those who neither have the space nor time to tend to big gardens has come the popularity of the container garden.

These gardens are grown solely using flowerpots and other temporary planting materials, sometimes relying more on vertical space than horizontal when it comes to fitting everything in where you want it.
