Hanging baskets add color at eye level and above, but not every flowering plant is built for life in a suspended container. These varieties are top performers for baskets.
Portulaca
Portulaca's trailing, succulent stems spill beautifully over the edges of a basket and hold up well to heat and inconsistent watering.
Bougainvillea
Trained on a small trellis or left to cascade, bougainvillea brings bold, long-lasting color to large hanging baskets.
Mandevilla
Mandevilla's vining habit and glossy blooms make it a striking choice for baskets placed where it can trail and climb.
Lantana
Trailing lantana varieties spread and drape nicely from a basket while blooming reliably through the hottest months.
