Hi Aquarious. Welcome to GC. I am sure you will do better if you find plants that you like and then come here ad say 'Will this work?' Oh and you really need a decent compost. Sorry to sound negative but once you start to do some learning you will find that it all works out.:D

Hi Tracy and welcome to the site. Regarding the hanging baskets you use whichever plants take your fancy.:thumb:
