If you live in a part of the country where you have to spend a lot of time in the sun, you will need to keep the containers covered with plastic. A layer of tar or some other type of weatherproof paint is also a good idea. You also want to make sure that the plants are not exposed to direct sunlight as this can cause the roots to rot. Another option is to plant in large containers that have a strong protective layer of glass, this can be done with the plants in a basket on top of a tall support.
