Container Gardening: Sun
built 628 days ago
Container gardening offers many advantages. The main one is portability. You can follow the sun or shade as the season changes, give mid-summer shade relief to plants that become wilted, and move hanging baskets that become wind-whipped to a more protected area.

The biggest advantage of container gardens -- with the exception of most window boxes -- is their mobility. If your container tomatoes do poorly in a back corner of your yard, you can move them into brighter sunlight. And if your morning-glories wither in strong afternoon sunlight, you are free to reposition them so they get a respite in partial shade.

The imaginative use of discarded items or construction of attractive patio planters is a very enjoyable aspect of container gardening. For ease of care, dollies or platforms with wheels or casters can be used to move the containers from place to place. This is especially useful for apartment or balcony gardening so that plants can be moved to get maximum use of available space and sunlight and to avoid destruction from particularly nasty weather.
