How does your garden grow?
May 28th, 2007
If you’re me it just plain doesn’t. But I can no longer use the excuse of a lame backyard layout for not having tomatoes fresh off the vine. Thanks to Potting Shed Creations, I can have not only fresh tomatoes but a variety of herbs and flowers as well””and without even breaking a sweat!
I read about Potting Shed Creations’ Garden-in-a-Pail in a recent issue of Real Simple and had to try it out for myself. I was sent two of their more popular Garden-in-a-Pails, the Lavender Mini-Garden-in-a-Pail and the Mixed Herb Garden-in-a-Pail. The galvanized buckets arrive with everything you need to grow your very own flowers or herbs right in the pail. The large size comes complete with garden gloves and the mini comes with a small wooden stake and pencil to label your seeds. I only had a chance to start my lavender pail before this review, but I’m already anxious to get going on my mixed herb garden. With easy-to-follow instructions (even for us non-gardeners) it took me seven minutes from start to finish to turn that galvanized bucket into a mini greenhouse for those lavender seeds. Any day now my girls and I should see a few seedlings popping up””we can’t wait!
I think what I’m even more excited about are all the other products Potting Shed Creations offers. From hanging baskets to “sentiment sprinkles“ to gardens-in-a-bag (yellow cherry tomatoes or alpine strawberries, anyone), the site is full of gardening options galore. And if you are lucky enough to have the space outdoors, Potting Shed Creations offers products for more serious gardeners as well. Green thumb or not, with Potting Shed Creations your garden will most certainly grow! ““Emily
