I want to get my garden sorted this year... but I'm a novice, so I need ideas and advice!
It's only a tiny bit of garden, about ten feet by six with the path to my front door right through the middle, and what isn't path is gravelled. As with all new-build flats, there's no topsoil under the gravel, just the debris left from when the building was put up.
So, everything's got to be in containers, and as it's a small plot and I don't want to block the light to my windows, anything that will measure more than about a metre and a half from ground to top, including pot and plant, is bad. As I live in Yorkshire, the climate tends to be wet, cold and windy most of the time. Oh, and sometimes it snows... so I need plants that aren't scared of a bit of weather and can be left out throughout the year.
I'm a keen cook so fruit/veg/herbs would be especially good... what can I grow in pots that's not likely to die in these circumstances?
