What You Will Need

- Place the hanging basket on a bucket for stability.
- Poke a few holes into the plastic lining for drainage.
- Fill the basket halfway with compost.
- Ease the flowers out of the propagator and place into the hanging basket.
- Once all of the flowers are in the basket, add compost.
- Hang the basket outside on a sturdy bracket.
- Using a watering can, water the plants evenly until water drips out of the drainage holes.
Tips
- Place the hanging basket outside when there is no frosty or windy weather.
- Hanging baskets can dry out quickly so water them daily.
- Put the basket in an area where it will receive a lot of sunlight.
- If the weather is cool and damp, reduce the amount of watering and wait until it’s hotter to water it thoroughly.
