Garden ball for hanging

Like a hanging basket, yes, but yet so much more charming and versatile to plant - that's our garden globe. In England, this type of planter is also known by the apt name "hanging basket". When planting, instead of the plastic pots commonly used in many hanging baskets, we use only natural materials. Our recommendation: before you start planting, place a piece of burlap or coconut fleece at the bottom of your garden globe. If available, you can also use some fir branches or pieces of moss to decorate it. Next, fill in good potting soil, mixed with a portion of expanded clay for water retention if necessary. You are completely free in the choice of plants. In spring, all kinds of bulbous flowers look very nice, snowdrops, for example, small daffodils or perhaps checkerboard flowers. In the warmer season, a combination of hanging and upright summer flowers is a good choice. In autumn and winter, cyclamen, broom heather, chrysanthemum and co. bring color to the defoliated branches of your garden trees. And if you are still looking for a bird bath to be installed cat-proof at height? Even for this purpose, the garden ball can be "misappropriated". Simply place a discarded soup plate that fits the size in the basket and refill it regularly with clean drinking water. Good to know: Because our garden ball is made of forged and unpainted iron, it will soon acquire a patina outdoors. The manufacturer from Witten an der Ruhr has this gem only for Manufactum in its program.
