Default Gardening in the Heat of Summer

It's not an easy task leeping those hanging baskets from drying out and dying in the hot dry tennessee weather.Ive got 2 baskets of hanging annuals and i must water 3 times per day to make them look like normal healthy plants.Im not to enthused with annuals.They require so much attention and then they die at summer's end.

Id much rather have perennials,they come back every year.

Any ideas on how to keep from watering your hanging baskets 3 times a day?Ive tried shade.Its hot here
