Growing plants in containers can offer many benefits and there might be circumstances in which it's the only way to achieve success. For instance, if the garden soil is poor or doesn't drain well, containers allow you to create the ideal soil conditions plants require.
Containers offer the flexibility to move them around to take full advantage of sunlight. If your yard is deeply shaded, sun-loving plants might still be an option because you can move a container into the sun. Container gardening also offers some design options not found in other forms of gardening—particularly window boxes and hanging baskets.
