Urban Gardening

Urban Gardening Ideas, from Rooftops to Small BackYards and Containers.

By , About.com Guide

There is no such thing as no space to garden, as these photos will attest. You can always squeeze in a container or two, even if it's on a shelf in the bathroom. Urban gardening takes many forms. Some urban gardeners make use of the small patch of soil near their front stoop, other head to the roof top. Some are even lucky enough to have a bit of lawn. Use this photo gallery to garner ideas for your own garden and then feel free to show it off and tell us a bit about your urban garden.
