It is advised to choose hardy plants that require less water and organic materials like compost so that they are more resistant to pests.

Since hanging planters require hanging, you need to put finishing touches to it. These include railing to provide support for plants, hooks to hang plants from, string to hang the planters and finally hooks to hang baskets and pots. Most apartment buildings do not have a built-in railing and you will need to install one outside. You can use plastic tubing as well as a broom handle to hang it on the wall.
