No, I didn't visit - but tomatoes such as Tumbler grow nicely in them.

There was a nice long article about them on gardener's world the other day.
I think the 'hanging baskets are out of fashion' thing is actually a bit
out of fashion itself now.

Pots are very in: why are 'flying pots' any more work, specially now we all
have the jelly granules and can choose from a wide range of relatively
drought-tolerant plants rather than just silly moistureloving lobelia.

I have a basket of ivy-leaved toadflax which has been flowering non-stop
for the last 2 months: I expect it to continue till the frosts. I rarely
bother to water it. I don't know why it isn't sold commercially as a
hanging basket filler - maybe cos it is just sooooo easy to propagate?
