Garden ball for hanging

Like a hanging basket, yes, but so much more charming and versatile for planting - that's our garden sphere. In England, this type of planter is also known by the apt name "hanging basket". Instead of the plastic pots usually used in many hanging baskets, only natural materials are used for planting. Our recommendation: Before you start planting, place a piece of burlap or coconut fleece at the bottom of your hanging basket. If available, you can also use some fir branches or pieces of moss to decorate it. Then fill with good potting soil, possibly mixed with some expanded clay as a water reservoir. You are completely free to choose your own plants. In spring, all kinds of bulbs look very pretty, such as snowdrops, small daffodils or perhaps chequerboard flowers. In the warmer months, a combination of hanging and upright summer flowers is ideal. In autumn and winter, cyclamen, heather, chrysanthemum and the like add color to the bare branches of your garden trees. And if you are still looking for a cat-proof bird bath to install at height? The garden ball can even be "repurposed" for this purpose. Simply place a discarded soup plate of a suitable size in the basket and fill it up regularly with clean drinking water. Good to know: As our garden ball is made from forged and unpainted iron, it will soon develop a patina outdoors. The manufacturer from Witten an der Ruhr only has this gem in its range for Manufactum.
