About this plant

Our 4" Hanging Baskets provide the perfect solution to tame your trailing plants and gIves them room to grow!

People buy it for a trailing habit that works well in a hanging basket or on a shelf.

Expect steady growth when light and watering stay consistent. After shipping, give it one to two weeks to settle before you repot or fertilize.

Place it in bright indirect light. Hanging baskets dry faster than table pots. Stick your finger into the soil. When the top inch feels dry, water thoroughly until it drains, then empty any cache pot or saucer. Use a chunky, well-draining mix and empty the saucer after watering. Average home humidity is usually fine.

Care

Light

Bright indirect light. Avoid a dim corner if you want steady new growth.

Water

Hanging baskets dry faster than table pots. Stick your finger into the soil. When the top inch feels dry, water thoroughly until it drains, then empty any cache pot or saucer.

Humidity

Average home humidity is usually fine. After shipping from a humid greenhouse, dry homes can crisp leaf edges. Raise humidity if browning keeps showing up.

Soil

Use a chunky, well draining tropical mix. Avoid dense soil that stays swampy. Always choose a pot with a drainage hole.

Feeding

Feed lightly in spring and summer. Do not fertilize a plant that is still settling in from shipping.

Common problems

  • Yellow leaf after shipping: common. Give it bright indirect light and only water if the soil is actually drying.
  • Wilt with wet soil: check for rot and move into a chunkier mix if needed.
  • Pests: inspect new growth and leaf undersides. Treat early.

Shipping and acclimation

Unpack promptly. Place in bright indirect light. Check moisture before you water. Give it 7 to 14 days to settle. Hold off on repotting and fertilizer until it is drinking normally and putting on growth.

Difficulty

Intermediate

Bright indirect light. That is the fastest way to improve growth and root health.
