As spring and summertime approaches, you may want to consider one or two of the best outdoor hanging planter ideas to add a bit of color to your front porch or garden. Hanging planters can add a bit of vibrancy to places where traditional potted flowers may not be ideal and are usually low maintenance. They can also be highly economical if made from inexpensive or recycled materials.
Creating a hanging planter is simple. All you really need is a container capable of holding potting soil, some plants, and a place to hang the finished product. It’s common to hang planters by an entryway or under the eaves of a porch, but you can be creative with your display location. Consider putting a row of hanging planters along your fence line or adding hooks to a masonry wall or to the side of your house. You can also hang planters from freestanding hooks to add a bit of height to your garden beds or dangle flower pots from a large tree in your yard.
The hanging planter ideas listed here should provide you with the inspiration you need to make your garden an enticing and colorful oasis this summer.
