Frequently Asked Questions About Hanging Baskets

Whether it's petunias in the kitchen, tomatoes on the deck or brassicas in the yard, supporting plants in hanging baskets requires special care. To get the most out of it, choose the right size for what you're cultivating. If the weather changes dramatically, help protect your progress by putting the basket under shelter, such as an awning, or moving it indoors.
Use a well-draining [potting mix](https://www.tractorsupply.com/tsc/catalog/potting-soil) and complement it with the right balance of [fertilizer](https://www.tractorsupply.com/tsc/catalog/soil-amendments) for necessary nutrients. Choose the right plants for how much sunlight the basket gets, and prune or deadhead them throughout the season as needed. Additionally, water your plants thoroughly, until water begins to trickle out the bottom of the basket. Most plants require watering when the soil surface feels dry to the touch, but be sure to consult any additional considerations for your specific plant species.

Garden Vertically with Ease

Hanging baskets are pots or planters designed to be either dangled from a hook on a ceiling, mounted on a wall or suspended on a pole. They are held up off the ground or floor and can be easily moved. This makes them not only space-saving solutions for growers with little room to work with, but also ideal natural touches for everything from living rooms to patios and gardens.

When it comes to coordinating with your home or outdoor decor, we offer several options, such as:

Indoor and Outdoor Housings

If you're on the hunt for something lightweight and weather-resistant, which will get the job done simply, go for a basket made of plastic resin. You can find durability and a cleaner look from a stoneware basket, as well as dependable water retention in hot weather from terracotta or ceramic options. Wire baskets made of metals, such as steel or iron, cater to the modern aesthetic, and they can be even harder-wearing if galvanized with a layer of zinc to help keep them from rusting.

Liners to Suit Your Growing Situation

To help a basket retain much-needed moisture for its foliage, pressed paperboard and plastic liners are adequate. For better soil retention and drainage, however, choose one made of polypropylene or canvas fabric, or lined with a natural material such as sphagnum moss, coco coir or compressed peat fiber. For a complementary finishing touch, hang it with grabbing attention in mind — from a no-frills rope or minimalist chain to a more decorative yarn macrame, we have options that complement many different aesthetics.
