I put myself in charge of the containers at my job because I love gardening and couldn't resist. My boss agreed but it's just been a flop and I feel terrible I had big plans and high hopes but nothing really lives long in this container.
It get's about 4 hours of morning light it's near the river in brooklyn it hot in the summer windy dry. I tried all different types of flowering plants but I don't think it sunny enough for most flowering plants because they reach out over the container the problem with that is it's a business and they pull a gate down when we close and just chop who ever is in the way it's heartbreaking to see.
It's a wooden planter about 10" across and about 8-9" deep. I bought fresh soil, plant food ,water crystals.
And my boss loves flowers and only wants flowers. I learned this after buying this beautiful grass that thrived but she didn't like it so any ideas?
