Pot Gardening is the practice of growing plants, including edible plants, exclusively in containers instead of planting them in the ground.
A container in gardening is a small, enclosed and usually portable object used for displaying live flowers or plants. It may take the form of a pot,
box, tub, basket, tin, barrel or hanging basket.
Pots, traditionally made of terracotta but now more commonly plastic, and window boxes have been
the most commonly seen. Small pots are commonly called flowerpots.
Containers range from simple plastic pots, teacups to complex automatic-watering irrigation systems. This flexibility in design
is another reason container gardening is popular with growers. They can be found on porches, front steps, and in urban locations, on rooftops.
Re-potting is the action of placing an already potted plant into a larger or smaller pot. A pot that fits a plant's root system better is normally used.
Plants are usually re-potted according to the size of their root system.
Many types of plants are suitable for the container, including decorative flowers, herbs, cacti, vegetables, and small trees.
