It’s hanging basket season!! 🌸🍃 Here’s s
It’s hanging basket season!! 🌸🍃 Here’s some of our best tips for keeping your baskets looking full and gorgeous all season long! 

Sunlight 
🍃 Shade Baskets usually take 4 or less hours of direct, morning sun, dappled light throughout the day.
🍃Part Sun Baskets like 4-6 hours of morning sun or late day sun. Not the heat of the day.
🍃Full Sun Baskets love 6+ hours of direct sun. 

Watering 
🍃Check hanging baskets daily until you are comfortable with the rate at which they dry out. 
🍃Water when the top 1-2 inches of soil is dry or if the plants show signs of wilt.
🍃Baskets in the shade will require less water, while those in the sun will require more.
🍃Wind can be very drying. Best practice is to water long and deep to provide adequate moisture.
🍃Extreme heat will increase watering needed. Check twice daily during the heat of summer.

Fertilizing 
🍃Fertilize your baskets every other week to encourage continuous blooms and green growth. Combo planters in full shade will require dramatically less fertilizer than planters in part-full sun. 
🍃 We like to use Jack’s Classic Blossom Booster or Down To Earth’s Organic Liquid Bloom. 

Prune and Deadhead
🍃Deadhead expired blooms, pinching all the way back to the stem. This will help promote all-season blooming. 
🍃Clip back leggy growth to encourage fullness and an attractive shape. 

And last but not least! 🍃 Rotate your baskets every so often to promote even growth.
