If you’re looking for a way to add some greenery and homegrown produce to your home, you might want to consider growing fruit and vegetables in hanging baskets.
“Fruit in hanging baskets can be great. They are just at the right height to pick fresh of the plant as you walk by!”
It’s a great way to save space, and there are many different plants that can be grown this way. In this blog post, we will discuss what vegetables and fruits can be grown in hanging baskets, as well as provide some tips on how to get started. Let’s get growing!
One of the great things about growing fruit and vegetables in hanging baskets is that you can grow a wide variety of plants.
Eggplants, strawberries, small peppers, cherry tomatoes, and lettuce are all good candidates. Chives, mustard greens, cabbage, and many herbs are naturals for hanging baskets, as are the smaller varieties of fruits like blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries.
When it comes to choosing a pot or basket for your plants, make sure to pick one that is big enough to cup the bottom of the basket (this will help keep it steady) and has drainage holes. If there are chains attached to the basket, you might find that they get in the way while you’re working on it, so it’s best to detach them before you get started.
Once you’ve chosen your pot or basket and plants, it’s time to get growing! Follow the instructions on the seed packets or transplants, and water regularly. With a little care and attention, you’ll soon be enjoying delicious homegrown fruit and vegetables right from your own hanging baskets. Happy gardening!
