Hello!!!!

I need to try more in hanging baskets. Yours look great!

In August 2014 .. hanging baskets with holes on the sides .. and pots going up the post with hang a pot hangers.. still haven't put up posts at our new house .. hopefully soon

2013 post .. kept calling it my coleus tree

2012

Fantastic. You have convinced me I have to try the hanging basket. What size diameter basket and now many total coleus? Thanks.

Flats and flats for the posts themselves.. the hexagon holes in the sides were hard to find a match fit .. I used to take pieces of newspaper and block the rest of the openings.. or else the soil would come pouring out when I watered.. if they were too big of a rootball .. had to make sure the plant was small enough to fit through the holes from the inside .. was 2 of these baskets .. and 6 hang a pot hangers staggered up the posts. .

Found a pic when they were first planted .. this was the 2012 start

I had micro sprinklers in each of the containers. . The long soaking watering took way too long otherwise.. and polymer water gels in every layer .. to help

And the hang a pot hangers

Thanks for good ideas on growing coleus.
I sowed older seeds too thickly, and now have an abundance of coleus.

Saying that like it's a bad thing

No not a bad thing as my old yard is fairly shaded and I can use them in so many ways..
