TopVeg – growing veg,fruit&herbs

So many vegetables can be grown on the patio, balcony or window box.

• Very little space is needed to produce a regular supply of fresh, healthy salad leaves, and one courgette plant will produce plenty of fruit, without causing a glut.

• We have a friend who lives in a fourth floor flat, with a small west facing balcony, who grows tomatoes, salad leaves, courgettes and french beans.

• A great variety of vegetables can be grown in containers, but it is important to select a small or mini-variety.
