You are right my little protege.
Also because they get more of a drying breeze than plants in the earth get.

Re: Public Art/Statues
they need a litre a day.
However... I must have some magic ones, 8 inch white solid pots. I never even planted it up and I've only watered it once this year yet this one petunia is growing really well. I just don't get it, and they were the same last year when new and full. I'd go away for a week in full summer and they'd be bigger and healthier when I got back.
I've never known hanging baskets to do that in the 25 yrs I've been gardening.

Yes, the best thing about plastic ones is that you can bung them in the washing machine when they get dusty as well.

Re: Public Art/Statues
lol I've never thought of that.
I shall have to investigate why theses ones are magic.
hmmm If I wash them it might wash the magic away. I'd better lock em up or they'll be ending up in ossy.
