Living in SF, I understand not having a garden. I instead, took the window screen off my light-well and stuck a table in there. I have two pots and an adorable yellow watering can. Fortunately I have a hose in the light well, so my flowers are pretty spoiled. I really want to get a citrus plant so I can be like Cher in Clueless who just leans out the window for a lemon...
I saw someone on TV once do a hanging "salsa" garden with a tomato plant growing out the bottom and herbs and peppers growing out the top. Google "hanging tomato plant" and you'll see instructions for using different buckets and pots and stuff. But there's hanging baskets that are cuter (they have a wire frame with a liner that look like a bird's nest, but it's called Coco Liner). You can put 2 together to make a ball and cut little holes all over it for flowers to come out of, or do just 1 and some things can be growing out the bottom with others growing out the top like normal.
If you have any sunlight around your front porch, you can hang things from the stairs above. Just look for things that need the amount of sunlight you have.
