A wonderful display of cascading
flowers that cannot be achieved using any other type of basket.
Better yet, these gorgeous plants grow faster and live longer. The
Bloom Master hanging basket is simply the finest hanging basket
available.
Made of high quality poly-propylene
with a 4-strand wire hanger with rigid hook.
It is not necessary to plant every
opening! The hanging baskets need to have flowers and plants
placed in the top and first row of holes to create the cascading
effect. After this, the other holes are optional-use.

Planting and Caring for a
Bloom Master:
Pre-moisten enough POTTING MIX, not potting
soil, to fill the container to within 1 1/2 inch of the top.
The 1 1/2 inch allows for a good watering pool.
Fill the container with moist potting mix to the bottom of
the bottom row of openings. Insert your desired plants root ball
first into the openings laying the root balls on the potting mix
with 1/2 inch of stem inside the container. If you are using
plants with a root ball larger than 2 inch then gently push the
foliage through the opening from the inside of the container.
Potting mix will not wash out of unplanted openings.
Add more moist potting mix to the bottom of the second row of
openings and repeat step 2 patting down the potting mix and adding
more if needed to reach the desired level.
Add more moist potting mix to the bottom of the top row of
openings. Repeat step 2 again gently patting down the potting mix
and add more if necessary.
Add more moist potting mix to within 1 1/2 inch of the
top of the container. Repeat step 2 using the same variety of plants
you used in the sides. This gives the container a balanced look.
Plants in the top should be no more than 3 inch apart. Water deeply
until water drips from the drain holes in the bottom of the
container to assure even hydration to all plants in the bottom rows.
Potting Mix Capacities: 10 inch Basket - 1/2
cubic ft.
Things to Remember!
ALWAYS leave 1 1/2 inch in the top of the
container for a good water pool.
WATER DEEPLY until water drips from drain holes
in the bottom of the container.
FERTILIZE once every two weeks with a good liquid
fertilizer that meets the needs of the variety of plants you are
using. Ask your Nursery for advice if you are unsure.
USE POTTING MIX not potting soil.
