Decorative Items: Hanging Baskets

Hanging baskets with flowers have become a fashionable ornament for modern gardens. They allow you to easily and quickly change the look of your garden. They are used in inner courtyards and pavilions, terraces and balconies, on trees and just indoors.

The ornament can be purchased in a shop, but many gardeners prefer creating their own floral compositions.

You can put a ceramic tray in a wire basket, or you can line it from within with moss or foam rubber. Then, the moss or foam rubber should be covered with film and filled with fresh floral soil. Moss will mask the film covered with soil well.

Then flower seedlings are planted. Not to damage the clod of the soil of seedlings, it is wrapped once more with a film. Then this film will not be seen as the plants grow.

Plants in the basket must be watered daily and fertilized weekly. To make it easier to water the flowers in ampelos, it can be hung on the block and lower down at the desired height in order for watering.

If you do not want to bother with seedlings, you can simply put a pot of flowers in the basket. A tray will not let the water flow to the floor.
