Arrange your houseplants so they dangle from your walls and ceiling, eliminating cluttered shelves and tabletops. You may make the most of the vertical areas in your home with the following types and their trailing stems, dangling leaves, and nicely arching curves.

English Ivy

English ivy (Hedera helix), sometimes referred to as common ivy, is planted for its glossy, rich foliage both indoors and outdoors. Though it will grow more fully in brighter light, this plant is one of the best for low light levels indoors. It is available in several types with varying leaf colors and forms.

Baby's tears

The tiny spherical leaves that border the delicate, trailing stalks of this little houseplant give it its name. Growing swiftly, baby's tears (Pilea depressa) will cover a hanging planter like a live curtain.

Burro's Tail

One of the most unusual indoor succulents is burro's tail (Sedum morganianum), which has rows of small, plump leaves on cascading stems. Usually restricted to tabletop planters, this drought-tolerant and low-maintenance houseplant looks best when its rope-like stems are let to hang from a hanging pot.

Spider Plant

The name of the spider plant (Chlorophytum comosum) comes from its gracefully arched, thin leaves. Because of its fountain-like leaves and the dangling branches of baby plants it shoots out from its center, this popular indoor hanging plant gives a brightly illuminated area a sense of a lush jungle.

Arrowhead Vine

Any area can have a tropical feel thanks to the huge, heart-shaped leaves of the arrowhead vine (Syngonium podophyllum). Because it is a humidity-loving indoor plant, it is particularly good in a kitchen or bathroom. However, keep it out of your pets' reach as it can be poisonous if consumed. The colors of arrowhead vines include burgundy, pink, and green.

Boston Fern

Nephrolepis exaltata, the fluffy, draped leaves of the Boston fern, instantly adds lushness to interior areas. Remember that this fern prefers damp conditions, so mist it with water every day to prevent the leaves from drying up, particularly in the winter.

Birds Nest Fern

Hang a bird's nest fern (Asplenium nidus) by a window to add flair to modern décor. Its exquisite, curved leaves change form according to the quantity of light they receive; nevertheless, keep it out of direct sunshine to prevent the leaves from crumpling and turning yellow.

Pothos

One of the simplest houseplants to grow is a pothos (Epipremnum aureum), which can tolerate most growth conditions. Its long trailing stems make it ideal for hanging pots, and types with variegated or golden leaf add even more interest.
