Container gardening is best for those who have little or no garden space. In addition to growing flowers, gardeners can also grow a variety of vegetable crops in containers on a balcony, in a small yard, or in the sunlight on their driveway. Basil, wedges, dried thyme, and other herbs are so much fun to grow in pots that they can be set up in a convenient place outside the kitchen door.
