Simple Salad-Garden Containers


old toy shopping card as a flower planter
 

Be creative when choosing containers. Even an old toy, such as this model shopping cart, can be perfect. Just line the cart with moss and fill in with a high-quality potting mix. Then plant away.
Tip: Tuck in small annuals, such as sweet alyssum, along the sides of the cart for extra appeal.
