Hanging plants look even more beautiful when hung up to grow, and a few pots are worth keeping at home

When you want to grow more flowers at home, you are always limited by your current conditions: no courtyard, a balcony that is not big enough, not much space for growing flowers, and so on. In fact, we can grow flowers as hanging plants, which not only saves space but also offers very high ornamental value, so why not do it!

1. Heartleaf ice plant (Aptenia cordifolia)

As a trailing plant, the heartleaf ice plant is very popular. Its leaves are emerald green and its flowers are brightly colored. It is very suitable for hanging in front of a window or placing on a high shelf. Its vines hang down naturally just like a waterfall, very beautiful. Its tender leaves are edible and can be eaten cold dressed with sauce!

2. Inch plant (Tradescantia zebrina)

The stems of the inch plant are rather weak and generally grow creeping, so it is more suitable for hanging cultivation. Its leaves are somewhat like bamboo leaves, and the leaf shape is very beautiful. It generally needs to be placed in a bright spot for care. In summer, good ventilation must be ensured, and direct sunlight should be avoided.

3. Verbena (Verbena hybrida)

Verbena has rich flower colors, bright colors, and a relatively long flowering period. When it blooms, the clusters are very beautiful, especially when grown hanging, looking just like a ball of flowers. It is a flower that loves light very much, so sufficient light must be ensured. If you want it to bloom more, you need to pinch it back more, which can promote the sprouting of side branches and lead to more flowers.

4. Air plant (Tillandsia)

The air plant is the only flower on Earth that can survive without soil. It can grow by absorbing moisture and nutrients from the air. You only need to fix it in one place and it can grow relatively well. You can supplement its moisture by misting, or you can water it directly, but after watering it must be placed in a ventilated spot to dry.

5. Lipstick plant (Aeschynanthus radicans)

The lipstick plant relatively prefers a semi-shaded environment, but if the light is insufficient or too strong, the leaves are prone to turning pale green, lacking vitality, and losing their proper ornamental value. During the peak growing season, its water demand is relatively large, so it needs frequent watering or misting to increase air humidity.
