I ordered the 45 inch stand. Did not realize that once the posts are in the ground there is not much height to the hanging basket. It is very low to the ground. Plus, I discovered that some of the plastic pot handles put on hanging plants are actually too long for the shepherd’s hook. My husband had to improvise a way to hang the plant. It looks pretty in the ground and the hook is sturdy. Just would have liked the plant to hang higher. Next time I will order the taller height hook.
