Impatients
Petunias
Geraniums
These are easy plants.
Water them, letting the soil dry in between waterings or when especially hot water more or as the soil dries out.
You can also buy ready made plants in hanging baskets. Home Depot has them.
Easy.
That is how, many people have year-round nice flowering plants in their pots and hanging pots.
Just get them from a store, already potted in a hanging basket.
Its worth it.
Keep in mind, that with "annual" flowering plants, they will die out at the end of their cycle. Then you simply replace them with another new potted plant. Or starter plants from the store.
