Choosing The Right Hanging Basket Pots

Your pot selection decision will signify that the plants thrive and your area displays an attractive look. Here are some factors to consider when selecting the right pots:

1. Material

Consider the material of the basket pot, whether it is suitable for your plants and your environment. Materials like mesh, plastic, and woven natural fibres are commonly used and offer durability, affordability, and a range of styles to choose from.

2. Size and Shape

Choose a basket pot that is the right size and shape for your plant. Ensure the pot is not too small, which can lead to cramped roots and stunted growth. Look for a pot with adequate drainage holes, and consider the weight of the pot when it’s filled with soil and plants to ensure it can be safely hung.

3. Style

The best style for hanging basket pots largely depends on personal preference and the intended use. Some popular styles include wire baskets for a modern and minimalist look, woven baskets for a more natural and organic feel, and ceramic baskets for an elegant touch. Ultimately, choosing a style that complements your space and the plants you plan to display must be your style expectation.

4. Plant Type

Consider the type of plant you want to grow in your hanging basket and its compatibility with the plant’s growth habits. For example, if you are growing a trailing plant, choose a basket pot that is deep enough to accommodate the plant’s long stems.

How To Maintain & Care Hanging Pots

1. Protect Your Pot & Surroundings

Pick a sturdy hook or bracket to hang your pot on. Make sure it is securely attached to a stud or beam and can support the weight of your pot. Keep your pots away from extreme temperatures by bringing them indoors during extreme heat or cold periods. This will help to prevent the soil from drying out too quickly. Use a drip tray or saucer to catch excess water that drains. This will prevent water from staining your floors or furniture and will also help to prevent water from evaporating too quickly from the pot.

2. Cleaning

Cleaning your hanging pots is necessary to prevent the buildup of dirt, dust, and bacteria that can harm your plant and hinder its growth. Over time, dirt and dust can build up on the leaves of your plants, which can lead to a decrease in their ability to absorb sunlight and nutrients. It’s recommended to clean your hanging pots at least once a month with damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaning tools on your pots, as these can damage the finish.
