Very top containers (not shown) will have hanging Tomatoes
These containers are planted with, green and red Sweet Peppers, Rocket, Green and Purple Basil, mint basil (just love it) and some chili bushes and coriander.
Here is the parsley and garlic chives
These four containers are each planted with 3 different leaf lettuce's
Half of the bottom container is planted with different coloured spinach plants, the other half with carrots and radishes.
Most of the containers have a few climber bean and cucumber seeds. The beans will rank all over and the cucumbers will hang.
I will be adding a few more containers. Definitely will fill one with Garlic and another with mint; to chase unfriendly insects away. The only thing missing is a Feta Cheese Plant - can't find one anywhere :) can you help?
The pole stands on the step of our patio and takes up very little space. I will be installing a dropper watering system.
Many people are intimidated by the thought of establishing a veggie garden, have limited space available, or like me, find it difficult to garden at ground level because of age or injury. Here is fun, nutritious and money saving idea that can be enjoyed by all.
Picture; filling a container with water and ice - picking your choice bits of Salad from your EMgro Salad Pole, cooling it in the container of iced water, then adding whatever you feel like and enjoying the healthy meal that you have created from scratch!
