Managing growth

Before displaying your plant, test its weight in the macramé hanger by gently lifting it up by the S-hook. The wrapping knots should hold firm; if the pot feels insecure within the hanger, remove it and retie the knots until you are confident that they will hold. As the plant grows, it will cascade beautifull­y over the sides of the hanger. If it becomes too large and needs repotting, replace it with another 15cm plant rather than squeezing it back into the hanger in its larger pot.

Watering

When the plant needs watering and feeding, do so after carefully removing it (and the pot) from the macramé hanger to prevent the cord from staining and rotting from exposure to water.
