A hanging basket that’s not hanging!
I wanted some colour to go on our decking but had left it very late to buy anything suitable.
At the nurseries we got tempted by this massive fucshia even though it’s a hanging basket it looks fine sitting on a big pot. They were selling them off for £16
I was going to cut off the plastic hanging bits but then thought in the night if it gets windy it will really suffer. I left them on & this last two days it’s moved to the shade.
It’s hard to water high up things now so easier on the ground.
Been out for lunch with cinema friend Dot but we haven’t been to the cinema for ages.
Looks so healthy! Did it rain up there? Roasting again here. I feel like Baby Bear in Goldilocks.....it is either too hot or too wet and I want it just right! 😅😅
Such a beauty Pat - I agree, so much easier to have it sitting on the deck, to water, to move out of the heat of the day and safe from any sudden breeze ! Hope you enjoyed your cinema jaunt!
Fuchsia is a plant that stands up to shade and coolness. Hang it up under that lovely tree in the middle around that nice seat! I think you should get a geranium for that lovely deck for colour!
It's lovely! Sometimes these things have removable 'hangers' that just click onto the pot - then you could have it both ways. But maybe it's not easy to check through all the foliage and flowers! Again, I notice that lovely single chair under the tree. :-)
Delightfully spit spot!
