container garden

Boxed plant collection

A container garden is a garden grown in pots, planters, or other portable vessels rather than directly in the ground.

Container gardens suit balconies, patios, and small urban spaces where traditional gardening isn't possible: She grows tomatoes and herbs in her container garden on the fire escape.

The practice is also called container gardening.
