Happy Urban Dirt

When the weather is good, you usually want to add color to your terrace or garden. And as we know, this can be done with plants. But apart from those you plant, Why not also choose hanging and resistant garden plants?

They will have no problem being outside and surviving the heat or sun. In return, they will provide you with some nice color in your landscape. Want to know what’s out there?

Senecio Rowleyanus

The rosary plant, as it is commonly called, is one of the most lovely plants you can have, especially since its leaves are actually compact balls of intense green. In fact, there is a motley variety in which the balls and some stems are white and greengiving it an even more unique character.

This succulent is one of the hardy hanging garden plants, although in this case it needs partial shade, as direct sun can burn it and cause the plant to disappear completely.

It needs to be transplanted into a pot with good drainage and rather scant watering. After a tiny while you will see it start to climb out of the pot and cover it.

Buganvilla

Bougainvillea is one of the hardiest hanging garden plants you can find. It’s actually a vine, but no one says you can’t have it as a hanging plant (Although there will come a time when you’ll have to phrase it differently, especially if it gets a lot bigger.

It is deciduous, but if you have a temperate climate year round, it may not for the first few years, but once it gets used to it, it can bloom all year round.

Verbena

Another hanging and hardy outdoor plant you may consider is verbena, a very resistant flowering plant that can grow in direct sunlight without fear of damage.

Place it in a hanging pot and you will see how it grows and how beautifully (and spectacularly) it blooms. And its compact pink and fuchsia flowers will attract everyone’s attention.

Indeed, requires very repeated watering (You will notice that the leaves wilt when they lack water.)

creeping lantana

Don’t be fooled by his name. It is true that this plant is creeping and serves to cover the ground. But the truth is, you could also pot it up, hang it up, and it would grow over the edge of the pot and start hanging. If that’s what you’re looking for, it’s one of the most lovely plants you can have outside (and it tolerates heat and sun very well, the more you get, the more flowers it will produce).

They can be yellow, purple or white.

When it comes to watering, it is not like the plant needs a lot of water. It can survive a little drought, but it should not be left in this state for too long, as this will stop the flowering.

Capuchin

Tropaeolum majas can be said to be one of the characteristic flowers of summer. And this is that at this time quite huge flowers bloom, in orange, yellow, red and even bicolor.

Indeed, it should be watered quite often, as it likes full sun, but then it dries out very quickly; and given that it blooms profusely, it will soon run out of nutrients.

What’s more, an fascinating fact about this plant is that you can eat its flowers. Try adding them to a salad and see how they taste.

Viola

Another plant that tends to creep is the pansy, which can also become a hanging plant if placed in this type of pot. You won’t notice it at first, but then it will start to slide in and out of the pot.

It can be placed both in partial shade and in direct sunlight. And best of all, it withstands not only heat, but also frost and low temperatures. SUV.

Fuchsia

Also known (actually more so than her name) as the “Queen’s Earrings” or “Queen’s Earrings.” Although we are talking about a bush (so you can have it in your garden), the truth is that it is sold more as a hanging flower pot.

The most striking thing is the bell-shaped flowers, in two main colors: red and white.

It blooms abundantly, but it should be placed in a place where it gets a lot of sun (if it is too intense, then in partial shade). In addition, watering must be very repeated, up to once or twice a day, because it requires a lot of water and does not like droughty land (if this happens, the plant will die).

Hybrid varieties with flowers in many other colors can be found on the Internet.

Calibrachoa

Another one of the hanging and hardy garden plants that can compete with the nasturtium we talked about earlier is this one. It is true that it is a bit smaller (in terms of flowers and overall plant size). Regardless, the flowers are very pretty, with red base tones and yellow spots that make each bloom unique.

It needs balmy temperatures all year round and therefore will remain perennial all year round. Of course, it does not like icy at all.

hanging petunias

We continue with the more hardy and hanging outdoor plants. And again, one with a flower. The hanging petunia attracts a lot of attention with its floweringespecially since if you take good care of it, it can become a potted plant (in which you can barely see the leaves).

This plant grows very, very quickly, so much so that it flowers in the same year it is planted (spring to fall).

There are many colorful flowering plants on the market, even bicolor ones.

When it comes to your care, Needs direct lithe and repeated watering.

Potho

If you don’t like to have hanging plants blooming too often, maybe you should try pothos? The truth is that there are many varieties to choose from that thrive outdoors.

You just need to find a place for them in partial shade (because in the first years they may not withstand direct sun) and water them from time to time. In turn, under the influence of lithe, the leaves may change color or take on various colors.

As you can see, there are many hardy and hanging garden plants that you can have in your garden, terrace or balcony. Can you recommend any others that you like?
