An eddible plant garden can be a very ornimental landscape for your home on a city lot or a larger piece of acreage. The concept is that if you are going to grow plants in your home landscape that you pick plants that bare furits and vegitables.. On smaller urban lots one is limited by making a few careful select choices of plants since space is limited. Space limitations are also a problem for larger pices of land. Selecting plants to grow depends on what you like to eat and on how you want your garden to look. Plants with edible nuts, seeds, fruits and vegitables can be as ornimental as any others. To keep a lot of plants havestable will require perhaps more pruning than letting a landscape go wild.
