What to do when succulents are dying? Hang them up to grow, and they will grow into a waterfall and make your balcony burst with blooms
Hanging succulents
Succulents are so delicate, can they really be grown hanging? Huahua promises you that as long as the hanging pot is suitable and they do not fall, succulents can absolutely be grown hanging~
Succulents generally like a cool and ventilated environment, and hanging in midair better meets this requirement, so not only long strip-shaped succulents like string of beads and purple moon can be grown hanging, other succulents can be grown hanging too
Especially the fleshy ones that are not tolerant of moisture and easily rot at the roots, they do not need frequent watering and are very suitable for hanging:
First prepare a hanging pot (you can make a homemade hanging pot by knotting hemp rope)
Plant the succulents the old way; here are the succulents that are barely alive
Hang them in a semi-shaded spot, and try to avoid direct sunlight all day
Many flower lovers feel that hanging will cause a lack of nutrients, but actually it will not. Hanging can also grow into a succulent waterfall
Hanging geraniums
Many families grow geraniums, but they all put them on the ground. In fact, they are very suitable for hanging and will grow into larger and fuller flower balls!
Geraniums bloom a lot and need plenty of sunlight (except during the summer dormancy period when they need shading), and can be grown hanging in spring, autumn and winter
When watering geraniums, it is better to keep them dry than wet, so it does not need to be too frequent, which also saves a lot of trouble when growing them hanging. Watering about once every 5-8 days is enough
Hanging Christmas cactus
Christmas cactus has many branches, and once it grows a little larger it looks messy. Also, its root system is relatively short, it is not tolerant of moisture, and it easily rots at the roots, so it often looks droopy
In spring and autumn, when the sunlight is not too strong, you can grow Christmas cactus hanging
This way, ensuring 3-4 hours of light every day is more suitable for its needs and keeps them energetic
After hanging, watering once every 10-15 days is enough, and you can also spray water with a spray bottle as usual
Hanging petunias
Petunias, which are very popular this year, have more growing space when grown hanging compared with growing on the ground. However impressive it can be, that is how big it can grow!
Petunias like light, and when placed on the ground they may not be able to receive all-day sun, so hanging makes it more convenient to bask in the sun~
Do not forget to water it after too much sun. Watering once every 2-4 days is enough. Although petunias get thirsty easily, they are afraid of moisture and easily rot at the roots. Hanging is relatively ventilated and just solves this problem
Finally, here is a beautiful photo of hanging growth. Growing on the ground definitely does not have this effect
After seeing these plants grown hanging
what do you flower lovers think
It saves space and saves trouble
Hanging really is a good method
