Product description
Our ready planted hanging baskets are perfect for creating a beautiful display with no effort. Simply unpack and hang – it’s that simple!
Carefully selected flowering and trailing plants are combined in a grey hanging basket to produce a striking show of plants that complement each other beautifully. Each basket has been thoughtfully designed for maximum impact, blending plants in a way that will provide colour and texture interest all season long.
Choose a sheltered spot and position your hanging basket in full sun or partial shade. Water basket plants thoroughly and regularly, particularly during spells of hot, dry weather. Lightly prune spent flowers to encourage further flowering and keep the display looking its best.
Garden Plant Size Guide
Plants in larger pots can be multiple years older than their smaller counterparts with more mature root systems and foliage. This makes them able to thrive as a full size plant in your garden quicker than smaller alternatives.
The most common size of pot that garden plants come in are 9cm/1L/3L/5L this is in reference to the diameter at the top of the pot.
9cm potted plants still remain the most popular cost effective option though, they just may take a little patience to allow them to grow into full maturity once planted in your garden.

Instructions
Top Tip
Feed hanging basket plants weekly with a liquid fertilizer to keep blooms coming all season. Regular deadheading also encourages new flowers and keeps baskets looking fresh.
How to Water
Check daily in warm weather. Water when the top inch feels dry. Water until it drains from the bottom. In hot weather, you may need to water once or twice a day. Avoid letting baskets dry out completely, as this stresses the plants.
How to Plant
Use a well-draining, moisture-retentive compost. Fill the basket partway, add plants—thrillers in the center, fillers around, and spillers at the edge. Firm in and top up with soil. Water thoroughly and hang in a sunny or partially shaded spot, depending on the plants.
