Hello everybody. I am Della and have just found this forum. My garden is medium sized and I mostly grow shrubs and flowers - veggies don't seem to grow well for me and we just grow runner beans each year in large tubs. OH says it is the cash crop.

Hi della & welcome to the forum, hope you enjoy yourself on here. Nothing wrong with growing runner beans - they do give you pretty flowers & then beans for weeks on end, you should try things like courgettes, tomatoes & early potatoes in big pots too if you don't have much success with veggies in the ground.

Hello Della, welcome to the forum. I love growing veg but the weather this far north can be challenging at times. SueA is dead right, you can grow tons of veg in pots

Hallo della, I don't grow any veggies and I stopped growing tomatoes in the greenhouse because our Labrador, Henry, thought it was 'pick your own' heaven! Welcome to GF.

Hi there Della, and a very warm welcome. I'm trying to be a veggie grower (in pots), but not always very successfully.
I think you'll like the people here.... most of them seem to grow decorative flowers.

Welcome della, I grow some veggies and fruit in pots, potatoes, salad leaves, autumn raspberries but my garden has a lot of shade so not really suitable for lots of veggies
