FAQs
How do I install the hanging baskets?
Simply hang the baskets using the attached chain and hook. Ensure the supporting structure (e.g., a porch, hook) is sturdy enough to hold the weight of the filled basket.
What kind of plants can I put in these baskets?
You can plant a variety of flowers, herbs, and trailing plants. Ensure the plants you choose are suitable for hanging baskets and have similar care requirements.
How often should I water the plants?
Water regularly, especially during warmer months. The coco liner helps retain moisture, but consistent watering is crucial to prevent the plants from drying out.

Wipe down the cast iron with a damp cloth to remove any dirt or debris. Avoid using harsh chemicals that could damage the finish.
Are the coco liners replaceable?

The weight capacity will depend on the supporting structure. Be mindful of the weight of the soil, plants, and water when hanging the baskets.
