Our potted inspiration for this week is productive as well as beautiful; it is a moveable feast!

With Northcote?s new cottaSEAL pots you get that lovely traditional, earthy terracotta look and great looking vegetables.

They have been treated with a water resistant sealant to reduce moisture absorption so it helps to save water and reduce plant stress, by stopping water from soaking into the pot.

Vegetables can be as effective as any ornamental foliage or flowering plant. Baby Butter lettuce is a prime example, it is sweet, tender and as good to look at as it is to eat. No salad is complete without home grown tomatoes so try including some mini Piccolo Roma?s.

Broccolette is a gourmet multi-stemmed broccoli that can be grown and harvested throughout the year so don?t forget to add this to your list too.

The wonderful thing about Northcote?s squat Milan pots is that they can easily group together to create a 'potted vegetable garden' close to the kitchen door!
