2005 - Pots nineteen to twenty-four

Pot: 19 = Size: 60cm x 60cm | Location: Corner
Plantings: Digitalis Mertonensis (Strawberry Foxglove)
Observations: Nice flowering plant, lasted over the summer. Didn't over-winter well.

Pot: 20 = Size: 60cm x 60cm | Location: Backing onto fence
Plantings: Litatris Spicula (Kobold)
Observations: Nice flowering plant, needed some support as it tended to fall over at times. Didn't over-winter well.

Pot: 21 = Size: 60cm x 60cm | Location: Backing onto fence
Plantings: Pimula Denticulata
Observations: Nice flowering plant, short height in container and tended to disappear beside the Kobold and tomatoe plant. Didn't over-winter well.

Pot: 22 = Size: 60cm x 60cm | Location: Backing onto fence
Plantings: Cherry Tomtoe
Observations: Very agressive growth. This plant grew over the fence and was at a minimum 3 metres in length. It also grew over 3 metres in width. This is a plant that needed agressive pruning on a weekly basis to keep it at the size previously mentioned. Once it started to flower it produced approximately one small container of ripe tomatoes every day until October.

Pot: 23 = Size: 50cm x 15cm | Location: Backing onto fence on top of a 'bench' approximately 1 metre high.
Plantings: Double petunia
Observations: Nice flowering plant, it grew in a trailing vine approximately 2/3 of a metre in length. Flowered until a killing frost.

Pot: 24 = Size: 50cm x 15cm | Location: Backing onto fence on top of a 'bench' approximately 1 metre high.
Plantings: Onions
Observations: Liked the height when growing. Needed frequent watering as the location tended to dry out.
