I would like to plant some hanging baskets for our full sun deck that I could bring inside for fall/winter and still have look nice. Something flowering and trailing would be great. Any suggestions?

Nasturtium would be a great flower that will hang ove the side and grow quite nicely in that zone. Below is some great information I found online for your zone. The numbers after the description denote the zones. I hope this helps.
