Hanging Baskets for a Touch of Plant Life in Small Spaces
Hanging baskets are perfect for places where a larger garden would be impossible to cultivate. Easily placed up high on a post or railing, hanging baskets are a very convenient way to add a pop of color or lush greenery to any surrounding. They can have a huge impact on the decor of your house, apartment or condo for just a small footprint size. Whether they are used on a patio, in the backyard or on a porch, you can utilize our high-quality garden accents to create a beautiful outdoor environment that will draw friends and family into areas that may have otherwise been passed over. All of our English Garden hanging baskets are sold with a coconut fiber liner. We also stock a large variety of shapes and sizes of replacement coir liners.

A Bit About Coconut Coir Liners
Hooks and Lattice uses and carries extra thick coir liners because they are superior to alternative liners such as peat moss or other types of moss liners. They are natural, organic and environmentally safe as well as long lasting and reusable. In fact, the rich natural color of the coir liner will not fade over time. These liners provide excellent drainage and aeration, which will prevent root rot. Replacement liners are available for purchase online or over the phone. For commercial sizes, be sure to see our full line of commercial and XL liners.
Quality Craftsmanship
Aristotle once said, "Quality is not an act, it is a habit." Here at Hooks and Lattice, we value quality craftsmanship at a reasonable price. When you see our hanging baskets compared against others, you can see the quality. Our metals won't easily bend, our coconut coir is heavy and thick, and our hanging basket chains can support the weight of a substantial plant.
It is important to remember that suspended plants will be heavier after they are watered, so it is essential that you select a well-made basket and bracket system. If the location is subject to wind, the higher the importance of product quality. Our English Garden line is our most popular due to its extremely sturdy construction and protective vinyl coating or powder-coat finish on their handcrafted wrought iron frames. These protective coatings will help to ensure that you have a good-looking, reinforced decoration for seasons to come. We stand behind all of our products and staff an experienced customer service team to help. Buying from Hooks and Lattice means guaranteed curb appeal and friendly service!
Remember the Hanging Basket Brackets!
Unless you plan to hang baskets from the ceiling using hardware hooks, you'll need to invest in a metal bracket that can sufficiently support the weight of your planters, soil, plants and water. We offer an extensive line of hanging hooks specifically designed to do the job, and do it well. Browse our Residential Collection of brackets, or head over to our Commercial Collection of wall and pole brackets - all weather resistant, all extremely heavy duty, all intended for outdoor use year-round.
The next step will be to choose your plants. Certain plants will require only top planting to provide that long trailing look, while other plants will look best when they are planted in the sides of the basket as well as the top. Consult your local nursery for specific information regarding your preferred plants. If you wish to include a variety of plant shapes, then the trailing plants should be planted at the edges and the sides while the upright plants should be placed in the center. Keep in mind that small, young, healthy plants will adapt to their new environment more quickly than older plants.
Watering & Care
For the best-looking and happiest plants, you should keep in mind two important words: water and fertilizer. Both are important to the vitality of your plants. Plants in suspended containers require more frequent watering than plants in your garden. This is primarily due to water evaporating from the sides and the bottom of the basket in addition to just the top of the soil. If the potting mix feels dry 1" below the surface of the soil, it is time to water. Fertilizer is an important component to beautiful plants. Frequent watering flushes nutrients from the soil and thus frequent fertilizing is also required. However, time-release fertilizers simplify this process and should be reapplied as the tablets disintegrate. Your local nursery can provide valuable information when you purchase the plants that you intend to use.
