Mint plant is the easiest plants to grow in containers..you should try this..you can find as the mint plant grows the aroma of that plant will refresh your home..please try this..for more details follow me..
Depending on where you live (weather) and how much sun/shade your patio has there are some great patio plants.
We have had a lot of luck with: Hot Peppers, Tomatoes, Herbs, Squash, Gourds, Egg Plant, Celery, Lemmon Grass, Cabbage and Ginger.
Not as much luck with Carrots, Garlic, Onions or Peas but I think that was more to do with the lack of water then anything.
Incredible Vegetables from Self-Watering Containers by Edward C. Smith is a wonderful resource.
I will list what I have had success with:
Basil, cilantro, jalepena peppers, lime tree, lemon tree.
We love to grow kids favorite plant the TickleMe Plant in the classroom.
