Seriously though, hanging baskets is a game-changer for small garden space for more than one reason.

I still remember the despair of summer 2023, when it just rained and rained and rained. With the rain came the slugs, devouring all the young leaves of my herbs and leafy greens. I was about to give up for the season when I visited my next-door neighbours.

Their herbs (unlike mine) thrived and showed no signs of slug attacks. The difference is that they were high up in pretty little hanging baskets.

There and then, I was sold.

Now let’s talk practicality: how hanging baskets help with gardening in small spaces.

Hanging Baskets Are The Extra Growing Space That Can Be Squeezed in, Stacked Upon, and Moved Around

Hanging baskets are perfect for growing all sorts of goodies, from vibrant flowers to herbs, micro greens, and even small veggies. They’re like these mobile devices that you can hang almost anywhere—on top of the fence, along a trellis wire, or between sturdy tree branches.

You can also move your hanging baskets around according to the sun or the season’s priority.

Hanging Baskets Can Add So Much Beauty

Plus, they add a delightful pop of colour and texture to your garden, turning that awkward empty air space into something pretty.

If impressive displays are what you are after (and who aren’t), hanging baskets are your special friends. Mix and match different plants in a single basket to create gorgeous, cascading masterpieces.

Also, you can easily switch your hanging baskets up with the seasons or whenever you’re feeling a bit of a garden makeover itch. It’s like giving your garden a whole new wardrobe!

These hanging beauties are a total lifesaver when it comes to outsmarting those pesky garden pests. By hanging your plants, you’re lifting them out of harm’s way, away from the clutches of slugs and snails.

Well, depending on the position, some slugs and snails might still reach a basket for an evening meal, but it would be more like two instead of, eh, 50.

So, if you’re feeling a bit cramped in your garden space, don’t fret! Hanging baskets are like a secret weapon, creating a whole new dimension of planting possibilities without needing an inch of precious ground space.

The bonus point: Hanging baskets are easy to set up, a breeze to maintain, and can bring a little whimsy to your garden.
