Artificial hanging plants are the quickest way to add greenery where there is no floor or surface to spare. Trail one along the top of a bookshelf, frame a bedroom window with a pair, soften a bare bathroom corner, or fill the empty space above a kitchen bench. The range covers tropical, succulent, and flowering styles. See the full plant range.

Indoors they hold their shape and colour in any light, including the dim corners and internal rooms where a live trailing plant struggles. There is no watering, feeding, dropped leaves, or mess, and no ongoing cost for soil, fertiliser, or replacements.

Only plants listed as UV-rated are made for direct sun and outdoor use. The remaining styles are designed for indoor positions and will fade if left in full sun, so the product page is the place to check before buying for a balcony or patio. Commonly searched as fake hanging plants, faux hanging plants, and artificial hanging baskets.

What Is in the Hanging Plant Range

  • Tropical hanging plants. Boston ferns, ivy garland vines, and Spanish moss for a full, natural look in any room.
  • Succulent hanging plants. String of pearls and trailing greenery for a modern, minimalist, or bohemian look. See succulents.
  • Flowering hanging plants. Bougainvillea, geranium, and rose styles that add colour as well as foliage.
  • Ivy and vines. Trailing vines and garlands for draping over rails, beams, and shelves. See vines and garlands.

Room-by-Room Ideas

  • Bedrooms. Frame a window with a matched pair, hang one in the corner beside the bed, or trail a vine along the top of a wardrobe to bring the room to life. Any indoor style suits a bedroom.
  • Bathrooms. A trailing plant on a shelf or hung in the corner adds greenery a live plant cannot manage. Artificial foliage is unaffected by steam and humidity, with no soil to harbour mould.
  • Living rooms. Fill an empty corner, drape a vine over a bookshelf, or cluster three at staggered heights for a layered, gallery feel.
  • Kitchens. Greenery kept up off the bench, above the window or at the end of the cabinets, with nothing to water or drop into food.
  • Balconies and patios. Over a railing or under an eave for apartments with no garden. Choose a UV-rated plant here, since the position sees direct sun.
  • Offices, cafes, and retail. A consistent green look that adds life without taking floor or counter space and needs no upkeep.

Styling Ideas

  • Hang in odd numbers. Groups of three or five at staggered heights read more naturally than a single plant or a straight row.
  • Mix the textures. Pair a fine trailing succulent with a fuller tropical fern so the display has contrast rather than one repeated shape.
  • Lean into macrame for a relaxed look. A rope hanger suits bedrooms and living rooms, drawing on the bohemian macrame ideas guide.
  • Frame, do not centre. A pair either side of a window or doorway frames the space, while a single plant works best filling an empty corner.

Choosing and Hanging

Indoor or UV-rated outdoor

UV protection applies only to plants specifically listed as UV-rated. Those are the styles made for direct sun and outdoor use, where the colour holds. Every other style is an indoor plant and will fade if left in full sun, so check the product page rating before buying for a balcony, patio, or other sunny spot.

How to hang it

Hang from the included hook or chain, fix to a wall or fence with screws, or cable-tie to a railing or beam. The plants are light and easy to reposition, so a display can be changed without tools.

Pot and proportion

Pair a hanging plant with a hanging pot sized so the foliage looks in proportion, and allow for the trailing length below the pot when choosing the height to hang it.

Common Add-Ons

Hanging plants pair with a hanging pot to suit the room, and with trailing vines and garlands to build a fuller display across a shelf, rail, or beam. For sunny outdoor positions, choose from the UV-resistant range.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are these the same as fake hanging plants or faux hanging plants?

Yes. Fake hanging plants, faux hanging plants, and artificial hanging baskets all describe the same range. It covers tropical foliage, trailing succulents, flowering styles, and vines.

Can hanging plants be used outdoors?

UV-rated hanging plants are suitable for covered and sunny outdoor positions. They are SGS-tested to 5,000 hours of accelerated UV exposure, so they hold colour in the sun. Indoor-only styles should be kept out of direct sun.

How do I hang them?

Use the included hook or chain, fix to a wall or fence with screws, or cable-tie to a railing or beam. The plants are light and easy to move, so a display can be repositioned without tools.

Do they come in different sizes and styles?

Yes. The range spans full tropical foliage, trailing succulents, and flowering styles in a range of lengths and colours, so styles can be mixed to build a layered display.

Do they need any maintenance?

No watering, feeding, or pruning. Dust is cleared with a light shake or a soft cloth indoors, and a hose for outdoor pieces. There are no dropped leaves and no mess.

How realistic are they?

The foliage uses RealTex finishing for natural colour variation and texture, rather than a flat single tone. Trailing plants drape naturally once shaped, which is where most are viewed.

What types are available?

Tropical styles include Boston fern, ivy garland, and Spanish moss. Succulents include string of pearls and trailing greenery. Flowering styles include bougainvillea, geranium, and rose.

Are they suitable for bathrooms and kitchens?

Yes. Artificial plants are unaffected by humidity, steam, or heat, so they suit bathrooms and kitchens where a live trailing plant can struggle. There is no soil to harbour mould.

What pot should I pair with them?

Choose a hanging pot sized so the foliage looks in proportion, and allow for the trailing length below the pot when deciding the height to hang it.

Are they safe around pets and children?

Yes. The foliage is non-toxic and contains no pollen, sap, or live plant matter. Small detachable parts should still be kept away from young children and pets that may chew them.

Can they be used in commercial spaces?

Yes. Cafes, offices, hotels, and retail fitouts across Australia use hanging plants to add greenery without floor space. Trade and reseller accounts are available on application.

What is the warranty and delivery?

All products carry a 12-month warranty, with UV-rated stock backed by the SGS 5,000-hour UV certification. Delivery is calculated at checkout and is free Australia-wide on qualifying orders.
