Comments (3)Honestly, I'd go for the fig. I like Black Bamboo much better than figs, of course, but unless you can really let the Bamboo get big, it likely wouldn't be worth the hassle.

Comments (19)The planter is easy to get to (water), just slightly above eye level. In fact, as I do my Spring cleaning, I realize I have another identical container.

I am thinking, the one I have right by the back door will contain the Kent Beauty oregano - because it should have some fragrance, so that is a bonus to have close to the door. And will supplement with succulents, as discussed. The other planter is the one I've already started putting together, pictured above. Looking to add the trailer, like dichondra which rina suggested. Thanks for all the input!...See MoreJan
