Great Container Vegetables to Try

Mr. Big Pea

Developed specifically for container growing, Mr. Big has compact vines you can grow up an obelisk or bamboo stakes; remember to water at the base of plants, as peas can be prone to powdery mildew.  For best germination use a pea innoculant when planting.
 
 

 
 

Amethyst Bean

Even though a dwarf, still provide trellising for any beans/peas you’re growing in containers.  If you want a more decorative look, use an obelisk or tomato cage as opposed to netting.  These are a beautiful purple colour.
 
 

 
 

Nando Carrot

There are many great choices for carrots; choose shorter varieties; often called fingerlings on package.  Often these do so good in containers as the soil is so nice and loose.
