| I do like using bags filled with annuals (usually begonias for us). But I dreaded watering them...until this year. I now immerse each bag in a small as possible pail of water. That way all the plants (particularly the bottom half) get the required amount of water. It takes much less time and leads to less overall watering than just pouring to the top. I am sure others do similarly. |

| Waiiiittttttt...... What kind of bag is that?? It is beautiful and idea of dunking the bag has really got me jazzed. Do tell. |

| A green heavy duty plastic bag. I dont do it myself but rather purchase it already planted and ready to hang. Until this year I would water it from the top but of course it would take forever for the water to make it to the bottom. But immersing it in a pail of water helps greatly. |

| That is a great idea! You are doing a superb job...the plants look very healthy! |
