So, we've lived in our current Chicago
townhome for the past 4 years and now we're ready to move to the Northwest Suburbs. It's time for a backyard (and a front yard)! For the past 4 years we've been limited to container gardening on our 2
nd floor deck and our 4
th floor rooftop deck. It's been quite a learning experience and a challenge to container garden in the "Windy City". I can't remember how many times I've found one or two of my
containers shattered to pieces in the alley after a windy storm.
Although I love container gardening, I'm really looking forward to being able to plant perennials and bulbs in the ground and not worry about them freezing over the winter like most of the ones that were in my containers have done.
Our first year here we basically started with a new slate - an empty kitchen deck and roof deck with amazing skyline views.
