Garden Hooks Get The Nod For Funky And Useful Patio Design

By Teri Farley


From the days of King Nebuchadnezzar, who made hanging gardens famous in Babylon, everyone has always been awed by the aesthetic appeal that plants and tendrils hanging from a basket in your home gazebo or corridor command. Depending on your preference of the hanging plants, they can keep the air around your home aerated and scented with that beautiful smell of nature that is all too common in farmhouses. Creating your own hanging garden is as easy as owning the right set of garden hooks.

The best hooks, or hasps, will not just serve the aim of suspending your plant baskets but are, in and of themselves, aesthetically appealing. By selecting a wide range of shapes, sizes and colors, you could enhance the landscaping congruity of your environment. Popular support clips are oriental in shape coming in gold, silver and bronze.

People gather these objects for different reasons including gardening and as mementoes. The hooks from manufacturers are more beautiful than those that are handmade. You can let people know about your personality, taste and preferences using these objects.

The value behind aerial gardens is more than planting some provisions to reduce your grocery bill. They also flaunt what you possess. This is an excellent reason to not use the tatty sisal rope and rusty metal bits to suspend your containers. The aesthetic appearance of a nice potted plant is easily destroyed by the use of poorly hung hasp. Similarly, the appeal of ugly flora can be diminished by using an appealing supporting clip.

The hooks come in different shapes and styles but the similar denominator is their main point of identification. They spot a circular base that is attached to the other part of the structure and the other part is always hanging on the basket. If you have several of such objects in your indoor and outdoor gardens, you will greatly enhance your gardening perspective. You however must know how to take care of the plants hanged in there.

Just like with any other plants, hanging basket plants need to be taken care of. They need to be watered, fertilized and trimmed to encourage maximal growth. You can easily determine how much water is remaining in the basket by lifting it up from the bottom. Baskets with little water will generally be lighter than ones which are almost dry.

These hanging plants will enhance the general appearance of your garden. However, you should not hang them where they will harm your furniture or where they will be prevented from growing. The best place to hang them is the gazebo and the corridor in gardens.

The success of your hanging plants depends on how well you are able to take care of your plants, but their general awing effect will be greatly enhanced by the use of the right garden hook. Do not let the effect of hanging gardens be diminished by the use of a vague hanging material. Try out garden hooks for maximal effects.
