Small containers are beneficial for so many reasons, mainly due to the fact that they can fit just about anywhere. They tuck into spaces otherwise too tight for a large planter, like a dark corner, or placed in front of or between several, larger containers.

No more sowing seeds with pencils, sticks, spoons, chopsticks, etc. when you have the Dibby XL Dual-Purpose Gardening Tool, a 2023 Green Thumb Garden Product Tie Winner. This tool from Spoken Garden helps any gardener of any skill level consistently plant vegetable and flower seeds at the correct depth for good germination. This means more plants with less time and less effort. Also, thinning and transplanting seedlings just got easier. Other tools are hard to maneuver around tender seedlings, and none of them gently cup a seedling by its roots. The Dibby XL helps easily transplant and thin seedlings giving them more room to develop. Learn more at https://ngb.org/green-thumb-award-winners/
