    Hi all, im new here. I haven't got a garden just a small yard with 2 small make shift borders built from brick that i normally plant a few border plants in and a few pots scattered here and there and on the walls. I'm hoping that i can make more of the space i have with your help because i don't know a lot about plants and planting, my husband used to do it all before he died, so thanks in advance.

            Hello and welcome.

            There's a lot to be said for yards. I think you turn them into stunning places. Gardens are great, but all that soil loaded with weed seeds, its a constant battle:) A yard full of containers gives you the opportunity to put on stunning displays in containers, and when something doesn't work, you can just move the entire container and swap in something else:dbgrtmb:
