Ideally, you want to choose garden containers that are large enough that you don’t have to water them constantly. If they don’t have adequate drainage then you will need to drill holes so the water doesn’t build up. You want to choose pots that are not going to dry out in the sun or become weathered. It is unlikely that you will overwater the plants so you want to make sure to be generous with watering.

Key Takeaways:

  • Make sure your containers are clean, and plan out your garden first.
