I was in the garden centre yesterdaymorning,
looking for some hanging plants;
problem is, my ceiling's not strong enough to fix a hook :(
still have to find a solution, i want them to hang free,
not against the wall or window.
I also did some repotting this morning and took some shoots
from the lemon-scented geranium.
I feel very seventies lately, even bought a tiny String of Hearts
and a Staghorn Fern and I Desperately Need To Have a macramé
hanging basket! :-)
The plant in the wooden container is a Nepenthes.
The one next to the hearts is a Cissus Ivy.
I owe my liking for hanging plants to ii-ne-kore,
love to see her posts about plants and flowers,
have a look at the moving parts too, they're dazzling and
hilaric at the same time and I love the score.
Bliss.
Bye bye.
I love hanging plants too! but I also do not really have anywhere to hang them, so my cats end up eating them because they are somewhere within reach(they are so bad!).
ReplyDeleteThat post from ii-ne-kore looks AMAZING! I have never seen anything like it!
And as for your hanging pot problem, is a joist in the ceiling you can hang the pot from? Hopefully it would be located in an ideal location!
to celine: the ceiling has only a thin layer of plaster, that's all, we tried with plug and screw but it didn't work, too bad :(
ReplyDeleteAll my indoor plants died recently(but one ,dear thing)They got some exotic and wierd disease-so I am not going to embark on new plant adventures for a while- but I will definitely enjoy yours and I will hop over and look at your inspiration as well! good luck with the new loves!

You can cantilever them out from the wall on an arm? i hope you make a macrame plant holder!
ReplyDeletewhat lovely plants:) and i am super honoured to help in some way with inspiration! i also have a string of hearts, it is getting so long now...and macrame hangers i also love, i got a few but ebay is getting really expensive now...i would LOVE to see a picture of your staghorn fern!
ReplyDeleteto brooklyn_codger: i'm gonna try :)
ReplyDeleteto ii-ne-kore: i will make a photo, but i can't hang him, because to heavy, too bad :(
to caramela: thank you!
Renilde, your photos always look like you can touch them. As in the plants, and textures. I love them! I love lemon scented geranium, and loved your 70's comment. ha ha. ii-ne-kore does have a stunning blog... agree! Must scoot, good luck with the macrame shopping.
ReplyDeleteEver since I saw you in that photo wearing your mum's old Dior sunnies I thought you suited the 70s vibe! I think someone of your abilities could do their own macrame in a snap :) Looking forward to seeing it. Your photos are just luscious. Kx
ReplyDeletehanging plants are great of course, but groups of pots against a wall are also just as good:)
ReplyDeleteYummy scented geranium. I should get one. My parents had a greenhouse all the while I was growing up. I loved the scented "Martha Washington" geraniums they grew. I would rub the leaves and smell that lemony scent. Lucky you.
ReplyDeleteHello Renilde, your plants look really nice,I also quite like the wooden bowl (3rd photo).
ReplyDeleteI will keep an eye in charity shops for macrame' hanging baskets for you.
ii-ne-kore is a great blog! thanks. X
een heel mooi idee, alleen spijtig dat je plafond niet mee wil.
ReplyDeletei love these photos. and the link is awesome!
ReplyDeletei recently got two little heart on string plants. one has been growing insanely fast. i love it!
in the moment I got just one plant in the house...guess I need some more
ReplyDeletei have a string of hearts too- an old one. i do love it- and other hanging plants too. great post renilde!
ReplyDeletehugs!
I love the cushion ! And I love your photos too…
ReplyDeleteIt's such a shame you can't hang them from your ceiling, they would so good hanging in macrame hanger. My mum used to make the best 70's macrame hangers, I loved them so much, with wooden beads and long fringes. I would love to see your spin on a 70's pot hanger!! xx
ReplyDeleteI've had a nepenthes as well. several times. unfortunately it didn't grow up but always died after a while, I'm afraid. don't know what I did wrong...
ReplyDeleteyours looks very good and strong! that's great!
