Hanging baskets have come a long way in recent years with a diverse range of plants – ornamental and edible – suitable for growing in this way. So, whether you are gardening on a sprawling plot, or looking to add some personality to to your balcony or courtyard, there will be some great container garden ideas for you.

Thanks to this wide array of plants available, you can enjoy stunning displays in hanging baskets even over the winter months when you might normally expect the garden to be slowing down. It may take a little forward planning when planting up a hanging basket, but it is wonderful to see these containers evolve as we move through the seasons.
