A Gardeners Forum Forums General Discussion Landscape trials and triumphs Doublewide Trailer and Hanging Pots

I've been thinking...Some of the plastic pots I bought would make great hanging pots. But, I don't have a porch and I do have gutters. Would I be able to hang pots along the front of my trailer? Or would that interfer with the gutters? And how hard are hanging pots to take care of?

I don't have a ladder and I'm afraid of heights, but ferns in pots sure would look pretty wouldn't they?

They would look pretty. But they would probably be too heavy for your gutters and at least bend them. Think about some evenly spaced posts along the front of your house to hang plants on instead. Same effect and you can have them as tall or short as you would be comfortable taking care of.

good idea and toggle hooks for in the house.

That is a good idea. Thankyou for posting it. I've seen those at lowe's and home depot.

YOU COULD PUT HOOK ON THE CEILING ON YOUR PORCH,
AND HANG flower'S THAT WAY IT IS WHAT I DO WITH MINE
AND I HAVE ALOT OF THEM HANGING AND WHEN I RUN OUT OF ROOM
I CAN HANG SOME ON TREE BRANCHES

Please don't use all caps....

She doesn't have a porch--but maybe she has some trees?

Yeah--all caps is considered yelling on the internet--and it's very hard to read for a lot of people.
