Favourite Hanging Plant

10 years ago

Finally brought home my Episcia 'chocolate soldier' from work. Started her late last summer from 3 cuttings I took from the sun burned mother. I was taking extra special care of the 4 hanging baskets of these we had until the store owner decided to 'loan' out some plants for a wedding. Long story short they were not treated very well and came back burnt. Eventually all 4 were thrown out. Happily I still have this little one.

It's still freezing outside and I wasn't planning on brining it home until I could keep it outside incase it contracted mealies. Right now I'm keeping it far away from my other plants, in a totally different room just incase.

I love these guys because of the deep green/brown fuzzy leaves and in the right light they literally sparkle. This plant in particular has white flowers, although I much prefer the pink ones. I'm not sure many people like these as we never sell a whole lot of them. What's everyone else's favourite hanging plant in our out?

I have a couple. I don't use either as hanging plants, but both can be used as such.

Chlorophytum comosum 'Green Bonnie'

Ivy Geranium 'Global Ruby Twist' (will be treated as a houseplant come winter) {{gwi:79124}}

I just bought the Geranium, so can't say much about it, but I've already fallen in love. I move quick. ;)

Mike,
Thanks, although Purple is putting me to shame with her hanging baskets. ;)

I look forward to your pictures.
