As the title suggests- I’m starting to dip my toes into gardening with some pot plants and hanging baskets.
I haven’t got a clue what I’m doing though.
I’m looking for interesting looking flowers and plants which are easy to look after and as a bonus, offer flowers or colour for a decent chunk of the year.
Any Recommendations? Especially for hanging baskets!

Im also very new to gardening and have been putting a lot of Cordyline in my garden.
It's not died, it grows fairly quickly, it's only £4 in b&q and I think it looks quite good. It basically meets all of my criteria.
I agree with the pp about herbs. I've found coriander grows as easily as a weed but I always feel really fancy going out into the garden to snip a bit off to stick in my fajitas!
