So gorgeous! This is great inspiration for me. I can’t wait to make my hanging baskets. The lantana is so pretty with the creeping jenny, the verbena, and the petunias.
Watching from GA. I love your videos. You're so creative and practical. I love that. So glad to see that you revitalize your container soil also. I see so many influencers tossing it out. That is so wasteful to me, especially in this economy. Keep up the good work!❤
Great job!! Thank you for sharing, you are such an inspiration, the hanging baskets look great and going to get fuller, I love the fertilizer you use, I’m excited to get mine done.
This was so helpful! My front porch is pretty shaded. We have huge trees in the front yard. Our porch is pretty big and has lots of space for hanging baskets. I'd love some ideas. I tried ferns, but against my shaded, green house, they kinda disappeared into the background.
Can't wait to see them filled out in another month! Miracle Grow has some moisture beads that you can add to any soil that can help with retaining moisture. Additionally if a basket does get a little dried, you can use a wetting agent or a drop of dish soap in a tub of water to help rehydrate the soil. Basket soil can become hydrophobic if it dries too much, those things can help reverse that.
I never gave a lot of thought to thinking about the center of the basket. That was a valued tip for me. I've never been very good at containers, but I haven't given up completely. I still can't figure out how you can get so many plants in one container😮! I'm lucky to get 3.
I love the hanging baskets! Great purchase at the antique sale. The combination of flowers is so pretty. Will you be running the drip up the wall and over to the baskets? There are Command outdoor light clips that might be large enough for the tubing. Thank you so much for sharing.
@shesamadgardener yeah I did 15 and only 3 have germinated but I do have I think 3 or 4 in my winter sowing jug too. I just didn't know if I should pinch them once they have a few set of leaves?
Making hanging baskets is so much fun. They all turned out so pretty. Would love to see an update on them later on
Definitely!!
Thanks for the tips. I definitely need to pay some extra attention to the one hanging basket my husband always brings me for Mother’s Day.
You are so welcome!

Loved the way you used plants from the garden.
Thank you! 😊

Yay! Enjoy!
Creeping Jenny can handle some shade. The baskets are beautiful!
Awesome, thanks!

Glad it was helpful! Consider begonias, creeping Jenny, impatiens, caladiums, coleus and geraniums for color in the shade.
Gorgeous! I planted that exact lantana in the ground last year. It grew to almost 5 feet wide! One plant and it was glorious!
Oh yay! I hope mine gets that big!
Yay! Can’t wait to plant my hanging baskets. I face northeast in zone 6, and Creeping Jenny goes bananas in my full shade.
Yay,I’ll try creeping Jenny in my shade basket as well! Thanks!
Can't wait to see them filled out in another month!

Great , just waiting the weather to be wormer here in Illinois!
Have fun!
You really did a lot of 😢rearranging/relocating of plants too. Your petunias look especially wonderful. You are a really good teacher. Thank you
Yeah, it helps with my budget!

I can cram a lot on there 😂😂😂

I just hang drip lines hanging directly from the baskets … it would be prettier if I went up the wall but I’m just not there yet!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge. For a basket with lingers, do you need to punch holes in the linger?
You definitely need to have drainage holes.
Great tips. This will be my first year adding hanging basket to my yard. What size is your hanging basket?
The larger one is 16 inches … they other two are 12 inches
Very pretty Amanda ❤❤❤ quick ? Do you pinch your nasturtium seedlings?
I did not and therefore most of them did not germinate … I will be filing or clipping them in the future.
