Plant Stands
How to choose plant stands
considerations
First, choose hanging (cotton cord, rope, polypropylene) or floor standing (wood, iron, steel, plastic) by your available space.
considerations
Material tier drives location: natural cotton rope for dry living rooms, polypropylene braided cord for damp areas.
considerations
Colour decides the mood, with silver, grey and black read modern, brown and green more classic.
considerations
Note the sub-type tag: Lawn & Garden and Gardening listings lean outdoor, Home & Garden leans indoor.
considerations
Weight is a tradeoff, as cast iron stays put in wind but plastic moves easily and suits balconies.
What's good
- Hanging macrame hangers made from cotton cord or pure friendly cotton rope free up floor space in compact flats.
- Wood and iron plant tables hold heavy pots without tipping.
- The colour range runs from brown and black to silver, blue, pink and more, so matching your room is simple.
- Polypropylene braided cord hangers shrug off moisture, a practical pick for kitchens and bathrooms.
Things to watch
- Natural cotton and cotton rope hangers mark easily and rot if left damp, a poor fit for humid rooms.
- Cast iron and steel stands weigh a lot, making them awkward to shift around the patio.
- Plastic stands are light but can look out of place next to wood and iron pieces, and may fade outdoors.
- Hanging rope shelves need secure wall or ceiling fixings, which renters often cannot drill.
