How to grow your own food in the smallest spaces - in pots on balconies, courtyards, and windowsills

Increasingly, people are keen to grow some of their own food, giving them fresh, delicious, and healthy ingredients right on their doorstep. Homegrown food also means reduced food miles and packaging, and serves as a reminder of where food comes from and how plants grow.

With backyards shrinking and more people living in apartments, we need to find a range of fruit, veg and herbs that will grow and thrive in small spaces.

Whether you love lush leafy greens, tangy citrus, crunchy carrots, or vine-ripened tomatoes, there are lots of edible plants that can be grown in pots, hanging baskets, and vertical gardens on sunny balconies, verandas, courtyards, and windowsills, opening up the wonderful world of homegrown food to everyone.

Yates Top 50 Edible Plants for Pots and How Not to Kill Them! provides the best information on which edible plants to grow in pots and how to care for them, no matter what your skill level. With loads of glorious photographs for inspiration, it puts 'patio to plate' within reach of everyone, whatever their gardening space.

About the Author

Yates is the number-one bestselling gardening brand in Australia and New Zealand. In 1895 Arthur Yates saw the need for a publication that answered gardeners' questions so he wrote the first Yates Garden Guide, a comprehensive gardening book that is still published more than 125 years later. Angie Thomas is a horticultural consultant to Yates, and is passionate about the health and benefits of gardening, and about teaching and inspiring people how to garden. She is also mad about growing food and filling her house with indoor plants and the scents from her garden.
