Gardening by container…

I wanted to share my little garden…in containers. I purchased my first tomato plant at Wal-Mart. The packaging said it was good for patios, so I got it. Then a few weeks later I found a cherry tomato plant that was good for containers, so I got that one too. Then I also brought one green pepper plant and one jalapeño plant. I am excited that all four plants are alive and producing fruit and vegetables. And for those of you who know me, I tend to kill any plant that I have. This year I have done well, so for only one casualty.

This one is called “Better Bush Hybrid Tomato” by Bonnie Plants

Here are my baby tomatoes, they look much bigger here than in actual life.



This plant is called “Sweet 100 Hybrid Tomato” by Bonnie Plants
I should have many cherry tomatoes from this one.

 This is the jalapeño plant also by Bonnie Plants.



 And here is the casualty; it was a pretty purple violet plant.

I need to send my mom here immediately. She'll be happy to know there is a container tomato plant that thrives. Thanks for posting.
