Vegetable window box

Hello, you could plant a variety of different lettuces, tom thumbs a good one, as it's small like size of a tennis ball, and there's a new one called dazel which is very nice looking - puple I think?! but both suitable for small areas. There is also a new pea called "half pint" that can be grown in container, i've got mine growing in a small pot and it seems to be going okay. If I think of anything else I'll let you know... Happy growing!

Best wishes Lucy :-)
