# I live in a loft apartment with 17 ft ceilings. I want to do some…

_Posted by Ama the plant Mama. on 2024-09-14_

I live in a loft apartment with 17 ft ceilings. I want to do some hanging plants but I can’t reach the ceiling by any means. Anyone have any suggestions? I have 1 plant rack so far.

You can get some floor standing hanging plant stands. Another option is hiring a handy man to get on a ladder and install a hanging plant rod if you will. Kind of like this picture

But how will I water them? Even standing on a 6 foot ladder I can’t reach the ceiling. 😿

Just making numbers up but: Let's say your ceiling is 12ft. Hire someone to install a rod that hangs down 4ft-You now have a rod at 8feet to hang plants from. You can ask whomever to hang the rod at whatever height you would like your plants to hang from.

Thanks!!!

Yes! Ditto to the rod route. Once it’s installed it easy to swap them in and out for watering and stuff

Clothing rack!!! The ones that have just bars on them… Research images for inspiration or Pinterest 💚🪴😊 Be sure to share the outcome 💚🌿

You could do wall mounted hangers on the other walls.
