Hello. I live in a trailer park in Northern California. Zone 9b. Limited growing space. That's why I am doing container growing. Fruit trees, herbs, berries, vegetables, fragrant flowers and plants, California natives, drought-tolerant plants, orchids. I have an AS in Landscape Horticulture and consider myself "well-versed" with plants. But container-gardening presented a new challenge. I have killed so many plants that I continue to read, research and inquire about what could be ailing my babies. There's always something to learn.
