  • thanks all. My baskets are those cone shaped ones so a little more roomy than some.
    Peas and runner beans sound like a great idea. I have some mangetout so I presume I could use these??
    I would like something that trail so that I didn't have to get a ladder out all the time to tend to it or harvest.

    My father grew carrots in his last year. Worked fine for baby ones. Also stops cats from cr%!ing in them (seeing as we had three, it was a likely occurance which had blighted us before...)

    Try radish, swiss chard, round carrots. Most herbs can be grown in baskets. Mixed salad leaves work well.
