Coir hanging baskets are not only a great space saver when it comes to growing, but they also help brighten up any space whether indoors or outdoors. Made with the natural material extracted from the husk of the coconut, CoirProducts.co.uk hanging baskets come with a host of benefits, including their ability to hold water and moisture. Read on to find out more about using our coir hanging baskets and what you can grow in them.
Advantages of using coir hanging baskets
Hanging baskets tend to dry out more quickly. However, a key advantage of using coir hanging baskets is that they retain water and moisture well, making it easier to manage the watering of plants. Coir is porous, allowing air to travel to plant roots, and helping plants to grow strong and healthy root systems. Coir also absorbs water well, which helps prevent over or under-watering your plants.
How to use CoirProducts hanging baskets
At CoirProducts.co.uk, our hanging baskets are available in a distinct range of sizes, including in 25cm, 30cm, and 35cm (diameter). They can be purchased in packs of two via our online shop. Fill the coir hanging basket with CoirProducts.co.uk coir potting mix, adding water as necessary to expand the potting mix, and then place your seeds. Our coir potting mix is completely natural, biodegradable, and peat-free, which makes it the ideal choice for the eco-conscious grower.
What to grow in your coir hanging baskets
Trailing plants will no doubt give you a stunning hanging basket. If you are looking to plant any flowers in autumn, select your flowering plants well, choosing colours that work well together. Find plants that flower in a reliable manner. You can try winter-flowering plants like pansies, petunias, and geraniums, and you can enjoy a vibrant burst of colours in spring.
There are also plenty of fruits and vegetables that can also be grown in hanging baskets during the growing seasons. Strawberries are also a popular choice when it comes to hanging baskets, while you can also try growing lettuce, tomatoes, small peppers, herbs, and eggplants, among others.
