Summer Blues
Summer is in full swing with this green metal palm tree hanging basket. Filled with a blue to purple floral ombre of trialing blue lobelia, purple Calibrachoa, and one of my favorites, the violet blue Platycodon grandiflorus aka Balloon Flower Plant. The arrangement has a little flare with a Boston Fern accent.

This arrangement will be featured in a book I’m writing on container gardens with Artisan Books to be published in 2024!
LIGHT: Full sun to part sun.
WATER: Hanging baskets dry out quickly, so water this beauty every day to every other day until water runs out the arrangement.
CARE: To keep the arrangement looking fresh and full of blooms, pinch off any spent flowers. This will encourage more blooms.
