When choosing the best plants for hanging baskets, embrace the opportunity to get creative with color and texture. Hanging baskets are some of the most eye-catching garden ideas, and give you an opportunity to extend your planting vertically as part of your container gardening.
As well as brightening up walls and fences, they make fantastic pergola ideas, and create a striking first impression at the front of a house. 'In outdoor spaces, hanging baskets can add to a welcoming curb appeal or beautify a patio or entertaining area. Indoors, they can even improve the air quality and step up your home décor by bringing the outdoors in,' says Rebecca Sears, chief gardening guru for heritage seed and plant brand Ferry Morse.
