Be Brave – Try Something New

But I’d like to encourage you to try a few new things this year.  Plant breeders have been hard at work developing new cultivars, often with the goal of overcoming some less than ideal trait that is common in established varieties. So what you get is familiar, but better.

Most of you know that my gardening focus is on edible plants that do well in containers. In recent years, I’ve noticed a sea change in the gardening world: almost all the growers are developing varieties specifically for containers — and darn proud of it.
