Growing a container garden is so easy and practical. A wide variety of vegetables, herbs and fruit can be grown in pots. Herbs are the most popular, followed by vegetables. People don’t choose to grow fruit in containers as frequently as the other edible plants, perhaps because it’s considered to be too difficult.

However, strawberries are an excellent choice for a container garden, and they grow very well in an assortment of different pots. This is a very resilient plant, and is sometimes grown in “grow bags” made just for that purpose, which can be hung up just about anywhere outside.

Another fruit that lends itself well to container gardening is a dwarf fruit tree. A number of small citrus trees develop well in large pots, and if you trim them frequently they can make a gorgeous addition to your interior decor. Quite a few varieties of dwarf berry bushes will also grow quite successfully in containers, including raspberries and blueberries. One drawback is that they typically weigh a lot and can’t be moved around very easily.
