   • Choose the right location. It’s important to site your containers where the plants growing in them will thrive. Plants that require a lot of sun should receive at least six hours of sunlight a day, so should be placed in a south- or west-facing location.
   • Choose the right container. Containers come in many shapes, sizes, colors and materials. Opt for conventional plastic, terracotta or wooden pots and troughs, or be creative by recycling buckets, bathroom furniture or tins.
   • Choose the right compost. When filling your container choose sieved home-made compost or multipurpose from the garden centre, as these are nutrient-rich, lightweight and moisture-retentive.
   • Watering. Plants growing in containers don’t have access to as much moisture as those growing in the ground, so will need watering more often than plants growing in your borders.
