We decided on pots, and have 25 large ones. They can be grouped into a "garden" with the flexibility of switching them around for a new look.

Only had a (small) problem with bugs when we used soil from our composter in the pots. Now just use bagged soil, and reserve the compost for the "outside" garden.
