9. Snake Plant (Sansevieria trifasciata) – Hanging Option

Okay, let me tell you about my favorite plant that basically raises itself.
I’ve killed more plants than I care to admit—overwatered succulents, under-watered pothos, even a cactus that somehow shriveled up on me. But then I got a hanging snake plant, and honestly? It changed everything.
Yes, snake plants are usually the tall, upright kind you see in minimalist office lobbies or next to yoga mats in influencer flat lays. But did you know they also come in hanging varieties?
And trust me, if you’re into clean, architectural design but forget to water your plants for weeks (okay, months), this one is going to be your new bestie.
Tough as Nails (Literally)
Let’s just say it straight: the Snake Plant is extremely hardy.
It doesn’t care if you move it around, forget to water it, or accidentally stick it in a dark corner for six months. It will just… keep existing. And thriving.
Mine has survived:
- A power outage during a blackout
- Being left alone for three weeks while I traveled
- My cat knocking it off a shelf (it bounced back like nothing happened)
If you’re busy, forgetful, or just starting out with plants, this is the one to grab.
The Gift That Keeps on Giving—Even at Night
Here’s a fun fact: unlike most plants that stop filtering air after sunset, the snake plant filters toxins even at night.
That makes it an amazing choice for bedrooms, especially if you’re into clean living, good sleep vibes, or just want something green near your bed without worrying about upkeep.
I actually have mine hanging above my dresser, and every time I walk in the room, I feel calmer—like my space is quietly detoxifying while I rest. Kind of magical, right?
Minimalist Approved & Health-Obsessed Friendly
If you love minimalist interiors, you already know how much those sleek, vertical lines bring to a space. And now? They look just as good hanging.
The trailing varieties drape beautifully in macramé hangers or woven baskets, while still keeping that structured, modern look we all crave.
Plus, if you’re into health-conscious decorating—meaning you care about what’s in your air, water, and skincare—this plant checks all the boxes. It’s been proven to remove formaldehyde, benzene, and other nasties from indoor spaces.
No fancy gadgets needed—just a little green life in your room.
