Winter pot garden

Any ideas?

I have a long, narrow, fully paved back yard. It has about 10 long steps, - my back garden runs up a steep hill. There is a long narrow paved area at the top.

What do you think? What can i plant thats edible?

    Oh, not that kind of pot......:p

    Which way is it facing? How much sun does it get?

    :D I wish!

    I think its north facing. It gets minimal sun - very well shaded, due both to the position and the hill rising on 3 sides around it, held back by a wall on all three sides. At the end of the garden there is a 3 foot wall, and the neighbours garden is level with the top of the wall. They have huge weeds and nettles growing here in a long thin strip. Hedgehogs love it - although they have fallen off my wall a couple of times, then get trapped cos they can't get down my steps.

    So, pots and lots and lots of shade all year around. There's a challenge for you :)
