This 12-inch (30cm) heavy-duty metal wire hanging basket by B&Q is designed for gardeners who want to create lush, beautiful displays indoors or outdoors. Its durable construction ensures long-lasting use, while the included chain provides secure hanging. The primary caveat is that it requires a suitable hanging point capable of supporting its weight when filled.

The 12-inch diameter is suitable for medium-sized plants and allows for a good mix of trailing and upright varieties. Consider plants with similar light and water needs.
A liner, such as a coco liner, is recommended but not strictly required. It helps retain moisture and soil, preventing it from washing out through the wires.
The basket is made of heavy-duty metal wire, but the actual weight capacity depends heavily on the strength of the hanging point. Ensure your hook or bracket is rated for the weight of the basket plus soil, plants, and water.
While durable, it's best suited for seasonal planting outdoors. For harsh climates, consider bringing it indoors or storing it in a sheltered location during winter to prolong its life.
The basket has a diameter of 12 inches (30cm).
No, the basket does not come with a liner. Liners are sold separately.
The hanging chain is made of sturdy metal, designed to match the durability of the basket.
Ensure the hanging point is level and secure. Check that the plant distribution within the basket is balanced. Adjust the chains if they are uneven.
This is normal wear for metal outdoors. You can lightly sand the area and apply a metal sealant or paint for protection, or embrace the weathered look.
Inspect the chain for any breaks or excessive corrosion. Replace the chain with a new, equally strong one if damage is found.
