Container Planting – Create Rustic Charm with Galvanized Bushel Baskets for your Vegetables or Flowers!
You can make a mini Companion Planting Garden in your Galvanized Planters as well. We grew Tomatoes and Lettuce together this year. Nice little heads of lettuce were produced along the edges with sturdy tomato plants in the center. The makings of a great salad grown together!
Choose your favorite Tomato Plant, determinate varieties work well for containers as they can grow to a nice, determined bush size & be easily supported by a tomato cage in the planter vessel.
We enjoy the rustic and simple feel of these Galvanized Bushel Baskets, and they look nice in a variety of places on the property. Either grouped together as above or separated throughout the yard!
