It’s happening again…our hanging baskets are on sale!! Come by the nursery between February 20th and February 27th for a whopping $10 discount (sale price $14.99, regularly priced at $24.99) on some fantastic seasonal color.

Hanging baskets are one of the easiest ways to bring bright, seasonal color into your outdoor living spaces.
Our designer color combinations are sure to brighten your patio or porch and keep a smile on your face through summer. Each basket has a combination of 3 different plants that were carefully selected to “play nice” with each other in a single container and complement each other’s colors to create an eye-catching display.

This beautiful pink verbena is in a couple of the combos. You gotta love that strawberry pink and white with the little yellow eye!
Care tips:
Check your hanging basket daily for water needs. The easiest way to do this is to poke your finger about an inch into the soil; if you don’t feel any moisture, it’s time to water. Some people alternatively like to feel the weight of the basket to determine how moist the soil is (drier soil will make the basket feel light).
Keep in mind that hot, windy days dry our soils out quickly, so a well-rooted potted plant may need water more than once a day when winds are high. If high winds are expected, give your basket a drink in the morning and check it again before you roll up your hose at the end of the day.
If your basket gets too leggy, give it a little haircut and a bit of fertilizer to refresh the growth. These plants take heat and sun quite well, so they should be brightening your outdoor spaces for months to come!

“Sunshine 2011” is one of our favorite combinations of sunny colors with bidens, petunia, and million bells.
