Getting Started in the Container Garden

I started out with a tomato and some flowers here.

One of the things that I start with is touching up the paint on the patio furniture. These days I have to use spray paint to reach everything but I would love to find a more environmentally friendly alternative to get the job done.

Here I've set one of the seating areas up for a tea with friends.

 We also took an old arched bench apart and will be attaching the Arch to the old chain link fence so that we can cover them both with the roses from the other side of the yard.

This is my rolling garden that includes herbs, flowers and vegetables. A few of the things here are lettuce, radishes, carrots, green onions, turnips, spinach, marigolds, poppies, daisies. Too many to mention here.

Here are some lily of the valley plants that I divided to share or save for a new flower bed.

The large Brown pots have a raspberry bush, beans, petunias, marigolds, a tomato and an assortment of other things in them.

Here's a long shot of the area that holds my container garden and three different seating areas.

This area is where we have morning coffee. these pots were just here the day I was dividing lily of the valley plants. They're out of the way now.
