KayJones, I got big hanging baskets, 18in. across, from Gardeners.com last winter. Here's a link, and they're on sale now, too, surprisingly. http://www.gardeners.com/Hanging-Nest-Baskets/38-589RS,defau...

Mine came with the Aqua-Sav coco liner, which has plastic between the layers of coco fiber so it retains water better. Matter of fact, I had to poke more holes in the one I did for my white begonia because it wouldn't drain hardly at all.

Now, I have a second one that I haven't even planted yet. Was saving it for my Achimenes but honestly I can't find another tree branch big enough to hang it from. Those big baskets are SO heavy be sure you have a strong hook or big branch to hang it from. It's a heartbreaker if they fall. Frankly mine is too heavy for me to lift now that it's full of plants, had to get DH to help me hang it and it's not moving any time soon.
