Thanks to the wonderful selection of containers and plants now available, you can create a garden anywhere. People with small courtyards or balconies are making gardens with pots, planters, boxes, and baskets. In established gardens, containers allow you to create focal points, enhance your deck or patio, or experiment with new plants and color combinations.

Whether you're new to gardening or an experienced gardener looking for new ideas, the Potted Garden will help you enjoy the convenience and possibilities of container gardening. You'll become more confident selecting containers and combining plants for gardening features that will bring you pleasure and satisfaction. More than 20 color photographs by Roger Yip let you peek into the potted gardens others have designed in a range of styles and situations.
