Are Boat Lilies climbing plants? Mine are growing wild and are falling over?

They're creeping plants, so similar, but they like to grow horizontally and latch onto soil so they can grow more nodes

What should I do with it lol? Do I just let it do its thing?

You can. Most people prune if it gets out of control. Though in my opinion she does need just a tiny bit more light. New growth is a bit sparse

Definitely not a climbing plant. They can go in a hanging basket though.

#### Christine respondió el 2025-03-17

Why are they growing up? Shouldn’t they hang down? What should I put them in?

### KJM comentó el 2025-03-17

They're probably stretching out reaching for light. Also, it doesn't really dangle down a lot it just creates a bushy hanging basket.
