Tips for using your hanging basket liners

1) Remember do NOT wet your Moss Liner, plant into a dry Moss Liner, when you have finished planting then water both the plants and the moss Liner.

2) Choose your plants carefully — Whether your basket will hang in sun or shade is very relevant to the plants you will use e.g.

• Geraniums or petunias for sun
• Impatiens or cineraria for shade

Will you water your basket regularly — if not choose something hardy e.g. succulents or grasses.

3) Always use good quality potting mix, add a slow release fertiliser during planting. Follow this up by giving your hanging basket liquid plant food at least once a fortnight.

Dead head and trim your basket regularly this will keep it looking fresh, promote flowering and prolong the life of your basket.

4) Never hang your basket in all day sun unless it contains very hardy plants.

Protect from wind as much as possible — this will tend to dry your basket out and you will need to water it more often.
