The principle behind this hook is so simple. Just attach the latch to any surface (wood, stucco, brick, metal, etc.) using the enclosed wood screws. Then angle your flowerpot so that the rim fits between the downward-facing hook and the lower support. No matter what kind of lip the pot has -- a curved rim, a wide band, or none at all -- it will fit securely into the Terra Latch. The latch fits any size pot from 4 to 10 inches in diameter, and holds up to 90 pounds. That's a lot of Petunias (or cherry tomatoes, or ornamental peppers, or weighty vines -- you name it!).

Terra Latches are a great way to transform boring poles, posts, walls, and fences into displays of blooming beauty. They can be used as mini-windowboxes, mounted on the either side of a doorway as living sconces, or used indoors wherever you need a houseplant but lack a shelf or sill to place one! Great for saving space in the vegetable garden, too -- just line them along a post and grow your tender Lettuces out of reach of nibbling rabbits, let your Strawberries ripen without fear of trampling them as you cultivate, or watch your peas and beans trail downward instead of up! (Really saves the back and knees, too, which every gardener appreciates!)

Of course, you can use Terra Latches for more than just flowerpots. They make great candleholders (fill a pretty pot with sand and sink a candle into the center), tool buckets in the crowded shed, or hooks for outdoor Christmas lights and more. The combination of their great strength, low price, and ease of installation makes them irresistible for all your indoor and outdoor hanging needs!

Each latch measures 5 3/4 inches long and 1½ inches wide. It weighs just a few ounces, and attaches with 2 screws. The perfect stocking stuffer for the gardener or home handyman, they're truly a gadget of a thousand uses! Set of 2.
