We weren't going to do hanging baskets this year because there was such a lot else to do. Chris weakened, he bought some very inexpensive baskets and some very inexpensive plants and they've done amazingly well.
They look wonderful Sue & well done fir keeping them alive in this dry hot weather. We decided not to do,ours this year, I was away at just the time & it was already looking a dry summer. They are very demanding we find but these look great! Funnily enough I noticed the Horticultural tent at our show had 16 entries in the hanging basket section this year....they all looked lovely hanging up, they made the tent this year.
