Doug Green’s e-book “Container Gardening” http://www.simplegiftsfarm.com/container-gardening-ebook.html is full of successful container-gardening tips. I wish I had read it before I planted my containers.

Doug says, “We're going to cover how most folks design containers and how we designed them at the nursery to make those big garden magazine-looking ones.”
I believe the seminar details will be in the free newsletter. To receive the newsletter http://www.simplegiftsfarm.com/gardeningnewsletter.html and click on “Newsletter” then enter your email address. The following link to Doug's blog will get you to the sign-up page for the seminars (May 22 post) http://blog.douggreensgarden.com/ The seminar will start in about a week.
If you really want to learn how to do containers from an expert, tune in to the seminars. It should be fun.
