Well I had a quick look in the morning and another quick look now and the trailing flowers look very very unhappy.
Ok everywhere I looked it said simply to poke your trailing plants through the basket liner. I worked out that the only way you could do that was by cutting. Not one place said to cut, just poke. If anyone has messed around with one of these liners, made from coconut fibre mostly - you'll know how difficult it is the poke the point of a scissor through let alone a delicate plant.
I've just found this too late:

Just so you know I used:
Trailing - ivy and purple petunia.
Middles (uprights) - verbena and blue isotoma.
