Container gardening can be rewarding
This is an example of a sweet “Candy Cane Pepper” that was grown locally last year in a container. The size of the plant and the uniqueness of the variety made this plant an ideal candidate for container gardening, and also a novelty conversation item.
Gardening can be very satisfying and rewarding, but many homeowners do not have the space to plant a traditional garden. When space is limited, many people choose to do container gardening as a means to raise a few fresh vegetables for their kitchen tables. Container gardening can be successful on a small scale in almost any location; however, gardening in this manner presents its own unique challenges.
