I am a gardening novice and moving to a house with patio - what fruit/veg can I grow in pots?
I would like to start growing some fruit/veg but am a complete novice and will only have a small patio and/or window boxes. I would love some advice about what plants I can grow in pots (esp things I can start with now but also things I can plant next year). I would like to try chillis, tomatoes, strawberries, herbs, salad leaves and any veg that will grow in a pot. I guess its late in the season to start now but hopefully there are things I can try now? I also want to have a few plants in pots that will be green for as much of the year as possible to brighten up the concrete patio. Again I would appreciate any advice.
Chili peppers do great in pots. I acclimate them indoors at the end of summer and eat fresh Thai Bird Chilis, among others, all winter. I have also overwintered them and had the same plant the next year.
There are plenty of books on the subject of container growing. My most useful advice is, challenge what you think is true, and try whatever sounds fun.
I have grown herb gardens in huge shallow bowls on the deck. Eggplant are absolutely stunning in decorative jardinieres, and by all means do "patterns", like a patchwork quilt, of different lettuces in a wooden crate. Look around you. Anything that holds stuff and can be made to provide drainage is fair game for planting.
There are still plenty of things you can plant if you are willing to spend a little extra and get the established plants at the nursery. It is important to lie to yourself and tell yourself that next year won't be so expensive...right. Just wait till those seed catalogs start rolling in!!!!
I think you are very wise to be planning some evergreens and "bones" for your garden at the git-go. This is also a viable option for your first season: focus on buying a few choice items that are going to anchor and be the mainstay of your garden, because when all the hoopla of summer is gone, you're going to be looking at that concrete patio for the rest of the year. Sigh. I know whereof I speak. So choosing wisely and looking into some very hard-working architecturally appealing dwarf shrubs and trees may hurt your pocketbook and not seem all that exciting right now, but looking out there and seeing a lovely arrangement of four neat globes of boxwood surrounding a birdbath or sundial, and a bird feeder with a pretty Clematis scrambling up the pole, will provide a sense of garden ownership and pride every time you pass that window, all winter long.
In such a small space, it is not necessary to plant a lot of flowers, and strategically placed, the few you put in will matter even more. For example, If you are going to have an eating area out there, have a pot with something really special "on stage" at all times. It does not have to be permanent; you can change plants as the season does.
