The best hanging terrariums for keeping succulents, air ferns, and other plants

Make any room feel airy and roomy with hanging terrariums that also double as tabletop vases in a pinch. Create your own vertical garden with hanging pots in varying heights, incorporating a visually interesting element to your interior design. Fortunately, we’ve narrowed down the list of the best terrariums here to help you decide on the best design.

Hanging terrariums are glass planters with hook tops that allow you to thread rope, twine, or other hanging materials through. Some terrariums feature a flat bottom that keeps them upright when used as desktop decor, while some are built with one flat side and a hanging hook. Terrariums typically don’t come equipped with any drainage holes, so soil-free and water-free plants thrive the most in these pots.

If you’re looking at hanging terrarium ideas, note that popular shapes include teardrops and globes, but more geometric styles are also available. Take a peek at our lineup for the full scoop.

Mkono Glass Hanging Planter

Best Modern Design

The Mkono hanging-pot set includes two heat-resistant glass planters in popular teardrop and globe shapes. Wide top hooks allow you to hang these up onto the ceiling or window fixture using the included jute rope, while a flat bottom lets you incorporate these small planters into any table arrangement. Note that the teardrop planter has a 1.75-inch top diameter, while the globe planter’s opening is 2 inches.

Orimina Pack of 6 Glass Planters

Best Multipack

Orimina’s set comes with six glass pots and hardware that allow you to create a mini green wall indoors. Each globe planter features a flat side with an opening for a hanging hook. The 4.7-inch diameter is wide enough for leafy hydro plants like pothos and common air plants. For the most impactful look, fill each planter with shells, decorative pebbles, and gems when growing an air plant.

WGV Hanging Terrarium Globe

Best Value

The planters from WGV are the best-value option available in a single, three, six, or 12-pack. Each globe has a 3-inch width and a 4-inch height with holes on either side for watering access. A wide, 2-inch front opening makes this ideal for other decorative purposes such as a tea candle holder, gem display, and more.

Hanging terrariums are clear vases that display air plants, succulents, and other small accent goods in a creative way. With rope, twine, or hooks, these hanging terrarium kits modernize your space and make DIY vertical gardens easy to set up. Keep in mind that hanging plant terrariums feature a globe or teardrop shape for aesthetic reasons, though flat bottom planters are best if you want a versatile piece you can also use on a desktop. Luckily, we’ve highlighted a wide variety of hanging planters here to meet your conditions.
