Daily care and tips for Hanging/Trailing Plants

How should you care for a hanging plant every day?

Moderate watering once the growing medium has dried out thoroughly, combined with indirect light, is sufficient for most trailing varieties. During the growing season, regular feeding with our liquid fertilizer for houseplants helps keep the foliage vigorous. Checking the stems monthly also makes it possible to spot any signs of drying out quickly.

How do you repot a hanging plant without damaging its stems?

Repotting is done in spring, in a container that is only slightly larger and drains well, handling the trailing stems gently to avoid breakage. It is recommended to wait 2 to 3 weeks after receiving the plant to let it acclimate before repotting. Fresh potting mix then encourages root growth without putting unnecessary stress on the plant.

Everything you need to know about Hanging/Trailing Plants

What is a hanging or trailing plant?

A hanging or trailing plant is a species with a cascading or creeping growth habit, whose stems naturally grow downward rather than upward. Pothos, Scindapsus, and Tradescantia are among the most representative genera in this category. Placed up high or in hanging planters, they create a cascading greenery effect that is highly sought after in interior design.

Which hanging plant should you choose for a room with low light?

The Epipremnum and Scindapsus tolerate moderate indirect light well and are suitable for less sunny rooms. The Hoya, on the other hand, prefers brighter light to maintain dense foliage. Choosing a variety suited to the room’s actual light levels ensures harmonious growth over time.

Are hanging plants safe for cats and dogs?

Toxicity varies by genus: Pothos and Scindapsus are irritants if ingested, while Tradescantia is generally well tolerated. It is still best to check the care sheet for each variety before purchasing if you have curious pets. Hanging plants up high, out of reach, also helps minimize everyday risks.

Hanging and trailing plants: verticality at the service of your decor

Some plants don't need a spot on the floor to make an impact; they prefer to cascade from a shelf or wall hook. Hanging and trailing plants stand out for their trailing or climbing growth habit, ideal for dressing up a bare wall or filling an elevated space. Among the most popular genera for this purpose are Pothos, Scindapsus, and Hoya, all capable of producing elegant, long stems over the months.

Caring for hanging plants: the right light, watering, and potting mix

Most of these varieties thrive in moderate to bright indirect light, away from direct sunlight that could scorch their exposed foliage. Water once the soil is completely dry, avoiding any excess water that could collect in the hanging pot. Choose our mineral, well-draining potting mix enriched with essential nutrients, particularly suited to their fine roots, and supplement with our liquid fertilizer formulated for foliage plants during the growing season.
