Ideas for planting strawberry pot

11 years ago

I have a large glazed strawberry pot with 6 pockets on the sides. Dwarf marigolds seem to do well in the pockets. I put a really pretty geranium on the top last year and million bells. Anyone have any other ideas about what would do well in my strawberry pot?

How about some gourmet lettuces? A nice red lettuce would look and taste mahvoulous! :)

Nasturtiums would probably do well too.

how about herbs? or even succulents? there are succulents that have a nice cascading "foliage".
