I have tried several (granted, just really cheap planting kits), the only one I was successful with was a pot of marigolds, but then caterpillars ate them beyond repair (despite continuous efforts to remove/prevent them as soon as the first one was discovered)
Do you have a favorite plant(s)? If so, what?
