Hanging baskets?

[gigglybug]

I have been given a hanging basket and I was wondering if there is anything fruit or veg I could grow in it?? I think im to late to start sowing strawberry's or tomatoes... any idea's??

I got some pepper plants last week, so you might still be able to get some tomatoes from a garden centre.

I also thought that strawberries were best planted in the autumn, so you could wait until then, though I don't know if it's the same in hanging baskets. Might want to wait for someone with more knowledge than me...

salads? maincrop peas?
if I were nearer you could have some of my tumbling tomato plants, the seeds seem to have been in stasis and have just popped up in the last couple of weeks
If you know anyone coming your way from anywhere near Andover/Salisbury give me a shout

Thank you!!! I will have to ask!

I have 2 packets of Pea seeds (Kelvedon Wonder??) Do you think they would be alright to use??
I will give it ago, the seeds are a bit old (should have been sown last year) hopfully they will be alright. Cheers

I wonder if you could grow some runner beans?? They run upwards so why not downwards too.

"Falling beans"!

I have four hanging baskets - one with flowers, two with strawberries and one with yellow 'tumbling tom' tomatoes.

The tomatoes are doing exceptionally well actually... I recommend trying them.

I've gone with peas because I already had some seeds. Fingers crossed
