Troubleshooting
Plants are wilting despite regular watering
The soil may be too dry or the drainage is too efficient. Check for soil quality and ensure you are saturating the root ball, not just the surface.
Basket feels unstable when hanging
Ensure the three hanging wires are evenly distributed and clipped securely into the rim slots. Verify that the S-hook is fully engaged with your wall bracket.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation is straightforward: attach the three metal hanging wires to the designated slots on the basket rim and connect them to the provided S-hook. Ensure your wall bracket or ceiling hook is rated to support the weight of the basket when fully saturated with water.
To care for your basket, regularly trim back dead foliage to encourage new growth. During dry spells, check soil moisture daily by pressing a finger into the top two inches of the medium. At the end of the season, remove the internal liner for deep cleaning to remove salt deposits or soil buildup, which helps prolong the life of the plastic structure.
