Down South, I've the flexibility to treat containers gardening in a more relaxed method. For hardy perennials? I used container deep enough to conserve watering time, and avoid drying out too quickly. We do not have much freezing issues down here, however, the humidity and heat during the summer is something we've got to take in considerations.

On the right, is a container that houses my dwarf crepe myrtle; it's almost like an authentic "bonsai" and it's left outdoor year round. On the center however, the more shallow pot is reserved for annuals that serve to provide colorful interest, but will need to be redone every spring. For right now, I've only an ornamental pepper growing in that pot.
