Like I said earlier, I don't really know because everyone I know kindly refused one.

I suppose there was always going to be a problem. Too low and kids and drunks would have been swinging on them, too high and it would put the shop keepers off watering them as much as they needed to be.

Although initally I did say they looked good, I do think some foresight should have been given to maintenance. For example some shops are rented on short leases, someone may have agreed to say two baskets, then they move. Leaving two baskets which may not be cared for at all by the new tennant.

In summer hanging baskets will need a good watering everyday, even if it rains, as well as dead heading etc.
