20 Best Indoor Hanging Planters of 2023

Whether with herbs, succulents or trailing plants like pothos and ivy, indoor hanging plants make it possible to infuse your home with houseplants.

"Hanging planters are a beautiful and practical way to add greenery to your home when you start to run out of space, especially windowsill space," says Paris Lalicata, plant expert at The Sill. Hang a macramé planter in a sunny bedroom corner, go for a modern display in the living room or display a ceramic pot as a way to elevate an entry — either way, your indoor planter will introduce instant texture.

Since there are so many hanging planters on the market, we've rounded up the best indoor hanging planters — including our favorite modern picks, highly-rated finds and affordable planters under $25. Shop plastic designs with drainage, macramé hangers and large ceramic pots that work indoors or outdoors. Before you settle on a pick, consider the needs of your houseplant or indoor flowering plant. Or, simply purchase your favorite hanger and shop for an indoor plant later.
