My container gardening guru Kerry Michaels claims to have made every mistake possible in planting her containers, some of them more than once.
So she has swallowed her pride and listed the top 10 errors gardeners make so the rest of us can avoid them.
We've been talking a lot about container gardening here on Garden Variety -- it makes sense because this is the time of year when we are putting containers together -- so it makes sense to take a minute and read Kerry's list of do's and don't's
My favorite tip? When planting a large container, have at least one plant that is as tall as the container so it doesn't look stunted.
What I am guilty of? I don't feed my containers regularly, and I should.
Mistake I only made once? Planting a large container on my potting table and then trying to carry it to its spot.
