Baby’s Tears. This small houseplant gets its name from the tiny round leaves that line its delicate, trailing stems. Baby’s tears (Pilea depressa) will grow quickly, draping over a hanging planter like a living curtain.
How do you fill a hanging basket with trailing plants?
Using sharp scissors, make a series of 5cm (2 inch) slits in the sides of the basket liner to accommodate trailing plants. The trailing plants will eventually fill out and mask the wire frame. If the basket is deep enough, two layers of slits can be placed around the basket.
