unruly tomatoes
- yep, I know what you mean about unruly tomatoes! I started so many seeds that were absolutely surprisingly successful, I have 30 pots of tomatoes! They totally ring a very large veggie bed which has been taken over by only 3 pumpkin seeds! My son calls my back yard another eco system! I'm proud of the title! But staking my tomatoes is a real challenge! It now looks like a drunken farm hand fenced it all! It is really a constant fight with my tomatoes! I think they are really alive and run amok every night laughing at my feeble attempt to "tame" them!

I Lost My Lawn!
- I live in a drought-stricken region and dug-up my lawn four years ago. It makes my yard so much more interesting: I have a mix of hardscaping and plants - along with containers near the front door and in a courtyard patio - I highly recommend it! The best part of it is that my family saves money on water, which, in turn, helps our community.

Growing more in less space
- I now grow more in less space with the monkeypots perfect patio planter. I'm growing tomatoes, peppers, lettuce and bok choy in one planter.
