5 flowering spider plants that hang in the window like a waterfall, more beautiful than pothos

Plants that can be grown hanging are not only very space-saving, but once hung up they look like a waterfall, especially beautiful. If you can grow these 5 flowering "spider plants," then it goes without saying, they are simply better looking than pothos!

1. Lipstick plant (Aeschynanthus)

The lipstick plant is a flowering plant that can be grown hanging. When in bloom, its shape and color somewhat resemble lipstick, and it offers both flowers and foliage to enjoy. The lipstick plant grows fast and has a long flowering period. It likes a warm, bright, semi-shady environment. Apart from shading it appropriately from the strong midday sun in midsummer, it should be given plenty of light the rest of the year.

2. Fuchsia

When fuchsia blooms, its flowers look like little lanterns, except they hang downward, and many of them are a purple-red gradient color. It likes a cool, moist environment and fears high temperatures and strong light. Mainly avoid harsh sun or excessive direct sunlight. It fears waterlogging, but likes relatively high air humidity. However, be careful not to spray water on the leaves, as it is prone to disease.

3. Petunia

Petunia has fairly rich colors, and its flowering period can last from summer all the way to late autumn, a quite long blooming season. Grown in a pot at home as decoration, it is wonderful, and it is also suitable for growing in a hanging basket. Petunia is a long-day plant, so when caring for petunias, give it as much light as possible. However, when the light is too strong around the summer solstice, still shade it appropriately to avoid excessive sun exposure.

4. Tradescantia zebrina (inch plant)

Tradescantia zebrina is a variegated plant, with leaves somewhat like bamboo, and flowers generally pale purple. Its stems are rather weak and generally grow creeping, so it is quite suitable for growing hanging. Tradescantia zebrina fears dry environments, so when the air is dry, spray water around it to increase humidity. In summer, ensure good ventilation and avoid direct sunlight.

5. Verbena (four-season hydrangea)

Verbena, also called four-season hydrangea, is a perennial flowering shrub. Its appearance is very similar to hydrangea, and its colors are bright and varied, very beautiful. Verbena likes sunlight and can bloom abundantly in the hot summer. It is easy to cultivate and its flowering period lasts as long as half a year. It is a flowering plant that can be grown hanging.
