How to care for your hanging houseplants

Watering hanging house plants

Few house plants can tolerate waterlogged roots. Except when it’s really hot in summer, you shouldn’t need to water more than weekly – and more likely fortnightly in autumn, winter and spring, when reduced light and temperature levels mean your plants are hardly growing.

First, use your fingertips to assess whether the plant needs watering. If so, remove the inner plastic pot from the outer one and place in the sink, or over a bucket, where it can drain. Or, if your outer pot has holes in the base, the whole lot can go in the sink. Slowly pour water onto the compost until it reaches the rim of the pot and let it seep through. When the water stops dripping from the base, hang it back up.

More like this

Always use tepid water and, if possible, rain water – tap water contains salts, which can make your plant unhappy.


Two ways to hang your house plants

The simplest way to display your trailing plant is to keep the plant in its plastic container and put it into a decorative outer pot at least 5cm wider in diameter. Slip plant and pot into a macramé or sling, carefully distributing the stems around the rim of the pot so that when you lift it into place, the taut cords don’t damage the plant.

Alternatively, pot your plant directly into a planter or indoor hanging basket with a hole in the base and integrated hanging cords. Remove the plant from the plastic pot and centre the rootball in your planter so that the trailing stems are distributed between the hanging cords. Back-fill with free-draining cactus or house plant compost and firm in, so the compost surface is about 3cm below the rim of the planter.

This succulent gets its name from long, thin stems lined with tiny leaves the color and shape of a pea, and it’s one of the cutest hanging plants out there. Similar species include string of bananas, with smile-shaped leaves, and string of dolphins, whose leaves look like little dolphins leaping through the waves. Take care not to overwater your string of pearls plant and always use a well-draining succulent mix to prevent root rot. When properly cared for, each strand can grow up to three feet in length, at which point you can trim and propagate using the cuttings.

There’s a reason this elegant, easy-growing houseplant is a classic: it’s nearly impossible to kill, and its variegated, arcing leaves can create a lush, jungle-like feel in any space. Hang a spider plant in front of a bright window or even on your porch or balcony and with a little TLC, they’ll reward you with tiny, star-shaped white flowers and babies you can grow into whole new plants. Allow the soil to dry out completely between waterings, as its roots tend to hold a lot of water. Spider plants are happiest when they're pot-bound, so keep this in mind when considering repotting.

House of Chais

Also known as wandering Jew, this colorful houseplant is nearly foolproof, even for home gardeners without green thumbs. The stems of this vigorous grower often reach out and up rather than trailing straight down, giving the plant an attractive bushiness that looks great in a hanging basket or on a high shelf. These guys thrive when neglected, so let the soil dry out completely between waterings, and cut back in colder months. After a couple of years, your inch plant may start to look leggy and bare. If so, consider recycling the mother plant for propagation.

Also known as devil’s ivy, a healthy specimen of this leafy vine can be trained to grow hundreds of feet long. Golden pothos, with yellow, cream, and green variegations, is the most common, but you can mix it up with rarer types like lime green neon pothos and satin pothos, which has a sought-after matte finish and silvery flecks, for more color and texture. Pothos are very low maintenance—they can go weeks without water if necessary, but aim to water when the top two or so inches of soil are dry. When yours is ready to reach the floor, simply give it a pruning, then propagate sections of stem to grow new plants.

Another trailing jungle vine, heartleaf philodendron is easy to mistake for pothos, though their care and growth habit is similar. You’ll know it by its truly heart-shaped (rather than teardrop-shaped), smooth-surfaced leaves. Variegated types like ‘Brasil’ are some of the prettiest, with shiny leaves streaked in deep and lime green. Another, known as blushing philodendron, has red stems and bright pink streaks on its leaves.

While most trailing plants are known for their long, leggy stems and lush leaves rather than flowers, goldfish plant is an exception. Make it happy and it’ll display bright orange or yellow flowers—shaped like goldfish, hence the name—amongst waxy, teardrop-shaped leaves on three-foot-long vines. This epiphyte grows on trees in its native habitat below tropical jungle canopies, similar to air plants and bromeliads, and prefers a well-draining growing medium and lots of bright, indirect light to bloom.

Not to be confused with string of pearls and other houseplants in the Senecio genus, string of hearts is another lovely trailing succulent. It's known for its cute, petite heart-shaped leaves splotched with pale green and white, with mauve stems and leaf undersides. Place yours in a south-facing or west-facing window that gets lots of bright light, but out of direct sunlight. Without enough light, the leaves will have less color and show less marbling, and they’ll grow further apart, too. They're also very sensitive to overwatering, so let the soil dry out completely in between deep waterings.

With its ropy, seafoam-green strands of tiny succulent leaves, a mature burro’s tail—also known as donkey’s tail—is one of the most awe-inspiring trailing plants out there. Even better, it’s a pretty low-maintenance succulent, needing just bright, full sunlight and occasional water. Take great care when handling this plant, though, as bumps and jostles can cause the delicate leaves to fall off, creating a patchy look. On the plus side, you can propagate fallen leaves into new plants.

This sought-after cultivar of the wax plant features the original’s deep green, glossy leaves curled and twisted into charming ruffles along thick, draping vines. Also known as Hindu rope or krinkle kurl plant, it makes a striking plant for a hanging basket or a high shelf that gets bright, indirect light. With proper care, hoya ‘compacta’ will grow pretty clumps of tiny pink, white, or purple flowers at maturity. Aim to water deeply and regularly during warmer months, but let the soil thoroughly dry out in between—like with many succulents, overwatering is one of the most common reasons for a dying Hoya.

With its herringbone-like pattern of red ribs against deep green, maranta is one of the prettiest prayer plants, a family that also includes calatheas. These humidity-loving plants are great to hang in a window or even atop a cabinet in your bathroom, where the steam and warmth from the shower can keep them moist. Choose a spot that gets bright, indirect light from a north-facing or east-facing window—the light is gentler from those directions.

The same English ivy that grows on the walls of stately old buildings also comes in several indoor-friendly cultivars. It’s easy to train your English ivy’s long vines around a basket handle or up a pole set in the container, or you can simply let them trail down in a hanging basket. Resist the temptation to cut a stem from outdoors to propagate at home, though—with their smaller, more plentiful leaves and colorful variegations, houseplant-specific varieties will look best in your indoor space.

A relative of the inch plant, purple heart is a robust grower even when neglected. Its lance-shaped, deep purple leaves and spreading growth habit make it excellent for hanging baskets and elevated planters. With proper care, it grows small, pale purple flowers. It’s incredibly easy to propagate, too—just cut off a section of stem with a few leaf nodes and pop it in a glass of water or directly into a pot of soil to make a new plant.

This cactus with Rapunzel-esque locks is a member of the succulent family and is closely related to the common Christmas cactus. The aptly named chain cactus, or Rhipsalis paradoxa, is known to grow chain-like leaves in branches several feet long. As is typical with succulents, this plant prefers only slightly moist soil and should dry out between waterings—it also enjoys an occasional misting and thrives in high humidity. It's not too finicky about light either, as long as it's not sitting directly in the sun, which can scorch the leaves.

Another succulent option, trailing jade or Peperomia rotundifolia is actually quite different from the common jade plant, though the two look fairly similar. Its waxy, round emerald leaves grow on branches that trail up to four feet long. Given the right care and conditions, small inconspicuous flowers can form. As far as watering goes, less is more with trailing jade—let the soil dry out between waterings, and reduce frequency in colder months. Like with many leafy succulents, propagation is possible by drying out stem tip and leaf cuttings and then planting in a moist potting mix.

A cousin to the well-known fiddle-leaf fig and other members of the Ficus genus, the creeping fig, or Ficus pumila, is a little different (and more hardy) than its woody-stemmed relative. Instead of growing upwards, this plant prefers to grow in long, lush vines, which makes it a great candidate for both outdoor ground coverage and indoor trailing pots. The creeping fig prefers consistently moist soil, but will suffer if the roots sit in water, so be sure to use a well-draining pot. To propagate, simply plant stem cuttings in a sterile potting mix in early spring and keep it warm and humid.

In the arrangement of residential premises, one can increasingly find compositions from living climbing plants, and this is fully justified both by their decorative properties and the ability to perfectly purify the air, bring a bit of comfort, and also participate in the zoning of space. Phyto-walls and supports with creepers are able to designate a seating area in the living room, delimit the dining and kitchen areas, and also decorate empty walls. The variety of climbing vines is great - they are small and giant, blooming with bright colors or having stunning decorative foliage. About what types of climbing indoor plants are the most in demand and how to look after them, we will consider in our article.

Essentials and maintenance

Among the whole variety of curly green indoor inhabitants, several main groups can be distinguished with their own characteristics. Representatives of some groups have excellent decorative foliage, others have beautiful flowering. There are also plants that do not differ in special care requirements, but there are more finicky ones that will have to sweat a little. Which of them to choose for landscaping the interior is up to the owners to decide, but we will consider the most popular types of climbing indoor plants of different categories and the rules for caring for them.

Decorative-small-leaved

Members of this group are distinguished by their excellent aesthetic properties of foliage with its bright colors and shape. The palette has many shades, ranging from rich green to faint purple. At the same time, there are species with a motley "clothes" or plain. Leaf shapes can be carved, pointed, oval. The most common plants of this group are the following:

Cissus is a relative of the vine with bright green leaves with silvery patches. Sometimes the leaf plate is painted pink on the wrong side. This tenacious plant is able to firmly cling to its long shoots and braid supports. Caring for cissus is not difficult - it is enough for him to provide a long-term supply of bright, but diffused light and periodic spraying in hot weather.

Scindapsus is a unique specimen that can grow in any home environment, both near the window and in the depths of the room. Its original heart-shaped leaves are painted in a rich green tone, diluted with light spots. The plant grows quite quickly, but in order for the shoots to be more lush, the flower must be pinched periodically. Also, do not forget about fertilizers and creating cool conditions in the winter.

Common ivy is an excellent landscaper for windows and various supports with decorative foliage of an unusual shape in variegated or solid colors. The result of the painstaking work of breeders are subspecies with beautiful shiny leaves of pointed or star-shaped forms. Ivy is completely unpretentious - it needs high-quality watering during growth, as well as regular top dressing in the spring-summer season (1 time in two weeks).

Decorative large-leaved

This group includes plants with large leafy plates, which gives a special showiness. For interior phyto-design, crops such as:

Monstera has stunning, glossy, dark green foliage with pronounced slits extending to the central vein. The ability of the vine to grow up to three meters in length is due to the presence of air roots, due to which it rises along the support. It is worth noting that the best basis for wrapping the vines will be a pipe wrapped in moss. Monstera prefers to be in constantly lit areas, but is afraid of sunburn.

Syngonium - has a large varietal diversity, boasts of its green, white or variegated foliage. The maximum height of the plant is 1.5 m. The leaves of a young specimen are lancet, but over time they become broadly lobed. When caring for a plant, it is necessary to provide it with regular watering and place it in an illuminated area. Do not interfere with spraying to avoid drying of the foliage.

Climbing Philodendron is an excellent liana room gardener whose leaf blades can be more than ten centimeters long. The plant has thin stems, on which the leaves are planted alternately. To add splendor, it is necessary to pinch the tops, and fix the branches to the supporting structure. The rest of the care comes down to regular watering (so that the soil always remains moist) and ensuring the lighting of his place of residence.

Climbing houseplants that bloom

The ability of loaches to impress not only with spectacular foliage, but also with the colors of buds makes them especially in demand for phyto-design. Plants are widely used to decorate window sills, various shelves and whatnots. The following species feel best in the interior:

Stefanotis is a fairly large species of vines, an adult specimen reaches 5 m. The second name of the plant is “Madagascar jasmine”. It blooms with flowers-crowns, collected in bunches in inflorescences. Their color is very diverse: from white-cream to light purple. Stefanotis grows quickly and branches profusely, so it needs to allocate a spacious place with good lighting. In winter, additional lighting will be needed, as the plant needs a long daylight hours.

Diploidia is an evergreen tropical beauty that attracts with its juicy green cover and beautiful flowers of a varied palette. Opened buds more than 10 cm in diameter live for about two weeks, exuding a mild aroma. Culture develops better in open space - on warm summer days it is better to take it out into the fresh air.

Hoya is a fairly large crop, which has the second name "wax ivy". Special features include original leaves and star-shaped flowers. Hoya is able to grow up to three meters in length and bloom for several months. To maintain the elasticity and brightness of the foliage, it is necessary to place it closer to the east or west sides, water regularly while the young plant is gaining growth. When the buds open, it is not recommended to move the pot - this can stop the flowering process. As a top dressing, phosphorus-containing compounds are used.

Ipomoea tricolor - this species can be grown not only as a perennial home, but also as an annual garden dweller. It is distinguished by a lush green crown with numerous leaves, but the main advantage is the beautiful flowers of the blue palette. When leaving, do not allow the soil to dry out and direct sunlight.

Tradescantia is rightfully considered the most common interior decoration, as it can be found in almost every home. It stands out sharply with its slightly pubescent foliage with a silvery tint. During flowering, the plant is decorated with small snow-white buds, which, unfortunately, are short-lived. Tradescantia loves abundant watering, but does not tolerate waterlogging of the soil, it grows in illuminated areas.

Particularly demanding indoor creepers

Among the whole variety of weaving representatives of the flora, there are chic specimens, but rather capricious ones. To enjoy the excellent lushness of greenery and bright colors of flowering, their owners need to put a lot of effort into creating a comfortable environment. The most demanding species include the following:

Ampel begonia – rightfully recognized as the most attractive climbing plant with delicate dense foliage, a variety of buds. The flowering period is quite long - from spring to mid-autumn. Culture requires bright sunlight in the morning and after 15 hours. In the midday heat, it must be darkened so that the leaves do not get sunburn. Ampel begonia prefers high humidity, but waterlogging of the soil is not permissible. She takes spraying well, and before flowering, you can give her a warm shower. At the beginning of growth, the plant must be fed with fertilizers with a high content of phosphorus and potassium. Also, one or two times a year, you can make organic top dressing;

Passiflora is an evergreen ampelous plant with flowers that are original in their structure, thanks to which it has received the second name “cavalier star”. The flowering period begins in July and continues until October, accompanied by a pleasant aroma. At home, it is best to place the plant on the southern windowsills to provide good lighting. The culture does not tolerate stuffiness, so on summer days it must be moved to open fresh air (balcony, terrace). It is worth noting that passionflower does not perceive heat, it is contraindicated for air temperatures above + 30C in summer, and in winter - above + 15C. Daily spraying and shower treatments every week help to cope with the arid environment. The plant is pruned annually to encourage vigorous growth and branching.

In addition to those listed, Bougainvillea, Clerodendron , etc. can be attributed to the category of particularly demanding flowering indoor vines. All of them are united by excellent aesthetic indicators that can be achieved with proper care. These plants love moderate temperatures, humid air, diffused light and do not tolerate drought and aggressive sunlight at all.

Formation of house climbers

One of the important points in the maintenance of indoor vines is their correct formation and location. Although most plants are able to independently braid nearby supports, human intervention in this process will not hurt. Wanting to get a long central branch, it is necessary to braid it around a round post as it grows and fix it. It is possible to fluff the vine so that it becomes much larger, by pinching the branches in the area of ​​\u200b\u200bthe apical shoot - then new lateral processes will form.
