Vines so many vines

Hi everyone! This will be my last blog post for a while. Today, I wanted to take some time and talk about vining houseplants. I really enjoy vining houseplants because they bring a lot of character into your home. However, finding the right one for your space can be difficult. Keep reading if you want to hear about some of my favorite!

The first vining houseplant I want to mention is the string of pearls. The string of pearls is a beautiful cascading succulent. It is a vine with little round balls on it, almost like green peas on a string. The downfall to this plant is that they can be very hard to take care of. For the best chance of survival, place this plant where it will be direct sunlight. Water only when the pearls start to wilt. If all goes well, the vines on this plant can get up to three feet long.

A vining houseplant with a lot of old character is english ivy. English ivy has a very classic look with green leaves that have three points. The ivy will thrive in indirect bright light. You should water when the top of the soil feels dry. In the right growing conditions, you will see your ivy grow rapidly.

Lastly there is the arrowhead plant. The leaves of the arrowhead plant look like arrows and come in a variety of colors. This plant will do best in a hanging basket or with a moss pole to climb. They like to be placed in indirect light. If they get too much light the leaves will start to turn white. Let the arrowhead plant dry out between waterings. This plant is relatively easy to care for.

What is your favorite vining houseplants? Have you ever had a string of pearls die?
