Hello! My name is Bethany and I grow things in my rooftop container garden in Chicago, zone 6a. In this video, I’ll show you what my back deck garden looks like at the beginning of June.

  1. So exciting ..got so many pretty different plants and blooms for the summer and fall 🥀🌹🏵

  2. Good Morning, deck looks great, just a suggestion, maybe you could spray paint that container white, so you wouldn't have to buy one , happy gardening!

  3. It looks beautiful Bethany. I love the pots on the ledge, the bubblegum is going to be massive. You crack me up with all those caladiums! Just gift the extra ones because there is no way all those will fit. You should definitely get a limelight hydrangea!
