Has anyone planted a decorative garden only with edibles?
I often stick surplus annuals in the veg plot, so snapdragons, marigolds, sunflowers, ipomoea, nicotiana and sweet peas.

any tips for rain and outdoor plants in containers ?
A bamboo cane cut into short lengths also works well, using three in a triangle or four in a square. Easily hidden and reused or replaced.
