Fantastic. Was about to buy 12 rattan or wire baskets then found this via Mr Fothergill's seeds. Did a search on TH-cam then jumped over to the Plantopia site and found the distributors list. Finally a properly designed hanging basket. Thanks for the videos!

Excellent you won't be disappointed, we also have a video about choosing the correct size 12 inch or 14 inch, the 14 inch can grow nearly 3 foot wide. thank Robin

[@neil9505]

@@sprootrsquance6131 Thanks. I watched the one about the sizes already. Going with 12 inches. Will do flowers in some but mainly this year strawberries. Will be trying an experiment with single strawberry plants vs multiples so ironically I may need some liners. Have ordered some recycled natural fibre ones. Now if I can only find some non plastic coated hanging brackets I’d be all set. Thanks again. 👍

I've watched several of the video and the one thing people leave out is location to buy these

Thanks for the video, Which flowers did you use, very beautiful! I need them for next year :)

[@sprootrsquance6131]

Thanks for taking the time to comment, the plants are violas a spreading or trailing variety called ice babies. In the UK we often use violas for winter and spring colour and ice babies are a good choice as they are tough and early flowering.

Where is the best place to buy big plants ? And what size root ball approx ?

[@sprootrsquance6131]

Hi to get bigger plants 9cm and above you will need to visit a nursery or garden centre, generally they are too expensive to send through couriers or the post. Some mail order suppliers offer jumbo plugs 6cm that would be okay, they need to grow for about 3 weeks before you use them. Hope this helps

[@georgestephens2038]

where can you get these in the US

[@sprootrsquance6131]

Hi They are sold in the US I would contact, the company www.plantopiauk.com/hanging_baskets.html

Sound ???? Can't hear you?

[@sprootrsquance6131]

Hi Thanks for pointing out the lack of sound at the beginning, the commentary starts about 20 secs in, I can see that this is annoying. I have tried to add some commentary before, but the you tube editor won't allow it, when I get time I will upload a revised version..

[@georgestephens2038]

oh an by the way you audio is almost non existence, we can hardly hear you

You put to many plants in the top. Also you don't have to press the compost down like you do.
