Largest Hanging Basket

In close lines to the Hanging Gardens of Babylon which is one of the seven wonders of the world this one follows suit to become the wonder of London.Yes we are talking about the Hanging Basket at Hotel Indigo  London Paddington.By attempting to be a london wonder this one has surely become a World record.
The 20ft by 10ft basket, which contains over 100 different varieties of plants and flowers, has been called 'The Hanging Gardens of Paddington'.It weighs about 250 Kilos and hangs at 7.5 meters from the ground and off the side of the building.The Hanging Basket took over three weeks to create by a team of designers, engineers and gardeners and eight hours to winch into position.The floral display includes thousands of pounds worth of species including orchids, roses, ivy, daisies, gerberas, ferns, conifers and moss.
Hotel Indigo London is a new boutique hotel  which makes changes to its decor with the changing seasons  so that  the hotel brand is felt new and interesting for the guests.
As the staff claim the hotel is all about bold colours,unique designs and their unique selling propsition has always been to keep the surprise quotient for the guests very much alive.The size of the monster basket makes you feel that the basket holds the entire building although it is the other way round.
The Largest hanging Basket was set by Hotel Indigo London Paddington at Paddington,United Kingdom on January 26,2009.
