“Next year I am growing my vegetables in containers on my daughter’s deck.”

Container growing is always a great option. No weeding! Yay! :)

My porch pots next year are going to be a combination of silvery Sage, purple Calibrachoa, ‘Little Finger’ and/or ‘Patio Baby’ purple eggplant and trailing purple Verbena.

(My house is a freshly painted ‘Painted Lady’ in Sage Green with Maple trim and PURPLE in the peaks.)

Saw the idea in Better Homes & Gardens magazine and I love it. Food for the body and food for the SOUL. :)
