Nursery Pro Tip

Winning combination: Plant several different trailing plants in one planter - for example, a Spider Plant with a Silver Dichondra and a String of Pearls. The combination of different textures and shades creates a rich, impressive look! Hanging tip: Ensure the hanging pot is accessible for watering - or use a pot with a self-watering mechanism.
