Vertical Gardening

April 14, 2020

My wife knows how much I love to garden, so for Valentine’s Day, she gifted me with a vertical garden so I could start early to plant salad greens and herbs. It has been a real hit for my family. We just walk out the back door and harvest a fresh salad. This has been so much fun! You can cut the lettuce greens and arugula (all varieties) and plants will quickly regrow so you can have a continual source of salad.

I know everything in our world is upside down due to COVID-19 and hopefully your family is doing well. If you are like me and the walls are starting to close in, you might like to begin dreaming and planning for when you can garden again. Containers to be the most effective should contain a thriller, filler and spiller technique of planting. You can use these same ideas for hanging baskets also.
