10 Plants To Hang In Your Home

Houseplants bring a refreshing touch of nature inside. To eliminate crowded shelves and tabletops, try hanging your houseplants. These indoor hanging plants range from varieties with leggy, trailing vines to picks with thick and rubbery foliage. Find which indoor hanging plant is best for your space. 

1. English Ivy Also known as common ivy, English ivy (Hedera helix) is a gorgeous, deep green, glossy plant. This classic plant is one of the best indoor plants for low light. Suspend a basket of English ivy from a ceiling and admire the elegant, cascading vines.
2. Baby's Tears This pretty indoor hanging plant gets its name from the small round leaves that trail down its thin stems. Baby’s tears (Pilea depressa) has delicate foliage that spreads quickly, making it a beautiful hanging plant. Hang this trailer up high and let the tears flow.
   
3. Burro's Tail (Sedum morganianum) is one of the most unique plants around. Because it’s a succulent, burro’s tail is extremely low-maintenance and great for indoor spaces. This funky plant is often confined to small tabletop pots, but it truly thrives when its thick foliage can run wild from a hanging pot.
   
4. Spider Plant (Chlorophytum comosum) is a classic houseplant that earned its name from its spindly leaves. As a low light indoor hanging plant, this beauty will feel at home in almost any space—just be sure it's out of direct sunlight. Spider plant's bright green foliage effortlessly enlivens any space.
   
5. Arrowhead Vine With its large, pointy leaves, arrowhead vine (Syngonium podophyllum) is one of the best hanging plants for filling empty spaces. It thrives in humidity, so this houseplant lives well in a kitchen or bathroom. Arrowhead vine comes in shades of green, pink, and burgundy and is versatile for all types of decor. Make sure it’s out of reach from your pets—arrowhead vine is toxic to animals.
   
6. Bird's Nest Fern Add some edge to your space with bird’s nest fern (Asplenium nidus). This hanging plant has gorgeous, curvy leaves that change shape depending on the amount of light exposure. Too much light will make the leaves crumple and turn them yellow, so keep out of direct sunlight.
   
7. Boston Fern The feathery foliage of Boston fern (Nephrolepis exaltata) makes for a truly beautiful indoor hanging plant. Keep in mind that Boston fern loves humidity; be sure to spray it with water daily to keep the leaves from drying out.
   
8. Pothos Adaptable to most conditions, pothos (Epipremnum aureum) is one of the easiest houseplants you can grow. It’s also known as one of the best houseplants for purifying air, making it the perfect plant for your bedroom. Hang pothos near your bed and breathe easier at night. The variegated leaves trailing over a pot will brighten up your space.
   
9. Philodendron Native to rainforests, philodendron adds a tropical vibe to your home. This indoor hanging plant is a shade lover and is extremely low-maintenance.
