Thriving hanging plants in blossom can be a showstopping addition to your décor, but they do require special care because of their placement. Some hanging plants are heavy. Be sure to securely attach them to a ceiling joist or wall stud. Even if your new plant is replacing another one, you&#;ll need to verify that your ceiling can handle its weight.

The soil itself is heavy. Much of today&#;s bagged potting soil is composed of hefty peat. If you need to lighten the planter, try mixing perlite into the soil. Perlite will probably increase drainage, so you&#;ll need to take care when you water. You may need to water hanging plants a little more often than your other plants because air closer to the ceiling is warmer and drier than air near the floor. To protect your floor from excess water, put the plant in a small pot that fits inside a larger nondraining hanging planter. You can also get a planter that comes with an attached tray. Some of these trays run small, so look for a planter with a tray that&#;s large enough to catch excess water.
Because of their height, hanging plants are more difficult to water than plants on a table or set on the floor. It&#;s possible to set up a pulley system to bring them down to a comfortable level for watering. Most people use a step ladder or water them outside or in the bathtub.

In a much quoted study, NASA scientists found common indoor plants to be surprisingly useful in absorbing potentially harmful gases and cleaning the air inside homes, indoor public spaces and office buildings.

The indoor pollutants that affect health are formaldehyde, Volatile Organic Compounds (benzene and trichloroethylene or TCE), airborne biological pollutants, carbon monoxide and nitrogen oxides, pesticides and disinfectants (phenols), and radon. These pollutants contribute to &#;sick building syndrome&#;, which causes symptoms ranging from allergies, headaches and fatigue through to nervous-system disorders, cancer and death.
Through studies conducted by NASA, scientists identified 50 houseplants that remove many of the pollutants and gases mentioned above. NASA, with assistance from the Associated Landscape Contractors of America, conducted a two-year study directed by Dr. B.C. Wolverton, an environmental engineer from Picayune, Washington, and a research scientist for NASA for over 20 years.
Dr. Wolverton&#;s study of the interaction between plants and air found that houseplants, when placed in sealed chambers in the presence of specific chemicals, removed those chemicals from the chambers. He concluded that plants can clean pollutants in homes, offices, factories and retail outlets.
Later, Wolverton expanded the study and assigned plants a rating from one to 10, based on a plant&#;s ability to remove chemical vapors or indoor air toxins, ease of growth and maintenance, resistance to insect infestation, and the rate at which water evaporates from the leaves. He summarized much of his research in his book, &#;How to Grow Fresh Air &#; 50 Houseplants that Purify Your Home or Office.&#;
Here are some details about the highest ranking houseplants in that study.
