I'm planning a water garden ON my back deck.
I acquired a couple of 30-40 gal tubs, the kind that you would use for ice and sodas at a cookout.
I've done it before with large flower pots, but that was close to 10 years ago.
It's not too hard, and with a few "feeder fish" from the pet shop they will be mosquito free.

I Lost one yesterday Craig. Vine broke. I planted a little early and the skinny vine is about a foot long and not strong. A couple are going in next Monday. Put a grow box over it and maybe it'll get a jump start on the real growing seaon.
