Top 5 Best Hanging Planters and Macrame Plant Holders in 2026

The Mkono Self-Watering Hanging Planter set is our top pick because it solves the two biggest challenges of hanging plants: watering access and aesthetic versatility. The recessed water reservoir maintains optimal moisture levels, making it ideal for frequent travelers or anyone who tends to forget watering day. You get both macrame hangers for that coveted boho-chic indoor look and metal chains for a cleaner outdoor appearance.

The 10-inch pots accommodate a wide range of popular trailing plants like pothos, string of pearls, and spider plants. Installation is straightforward with the included ceiling hooks, and the vertical hanging design is a genuine space-saver in tight apartments. The only real downside is the plastic construction — if you’re after a premium ceramic feel, look at our third pick instead.

If you already have hanging pots or macrame hangers but need a reliable way to mount them, the Mkono Wall Plant Bracket Hooks are the answer. These minimalist iron hooks have a clean, understated design that works equally well indoors and outdoors. The rust-resistant steel construction means they’ll hold up through rain and humidity on a porch or patio.

Installation takes just a couple of minutes with the included screws. The 6-inch bracket length is ideal for small to medium planters, though if you’re hanging large baskets you may want Mkono’s 10-inch version instead. These are an excellent complement to any macrame hanger or ceramic pot — think of them as the unsung hero of any hanging plant setup.

For plant enthusiasts who love propagation or want a minimalist wall display, this Mkono Wall Hanging Propagation Station is a standout choice. The clear glass oblate vases showcase the root growth of your cuttings, turning plant care into living wall art. The wooden frame gives it a warm, natural feel that pairs beautifully with mid-century modern and Scandinavian interiors.

This is a niche product — it’s not for hanging a big fern or trailing pothos. Instead, it’s designed for propagating cuttings in water and displaying small air plants or herbs. If you enjoy watching roots grow and want a conversation-starting wall display, this is the piece to get. Just be gentle during installation, as the glass vases are delicate.

Sometimes you just want a beautiful macrame hanger without any bells and whistles, and Mkono’s classic ivory hanger delivers exactly that. The cotton rope is thick and sturdy with a hand-woven quality that looks far more expensive than it is. The wood bead accents add a subtle decorative touch without being over-the-top, and the no-tassel design keeps things looking clean.

At 35 inches, it provides excellent hanging length for most ceilings and accommodates pots up to 8 inches wide. This is a versatile hanger that works with round, square, or even irregular pot shapes thanks to its flexible woven cradle. It’s the go-to option if you already have planters and just need a way to suspend them beautifully. If you want better value, check out Mkono’s 4-pack set which includes multiple sizes.

If you want to transform an entire corner or window into a hanging garden, this 4-pack set is the most cost-effective way to do it. Each hanger features a slightly different macrame pattern and length, so when hung together they create a beautifully layered, cascading effect that looks like intentional interior design rather than a random collection of plants.

The included ceiling hooks mean you won’t need a separate trip to the hardware store — everything you need (minus the pots) is in the box. The gift box packaging also makes this an excellent present for the plant lover in your life. The rope is slightly thinner than Mkono’s individual premium hangers, but for the price of roughly one premium hanger you’re getting four, which is hard to beat.
