Be inventive

Try new ways of doing things; watch the plants closely to see what works and by all means consult the many gardening books available at every library and bookstore, as well as the excellent gardening sites on the Internet.

There are also examples of container gardens in the City of Toronto, such as on the Rooftop garden at 401 Richmond, the Sunshine Garden at the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH) and many others that you’ll just start to notice around the city.
