Build Your Effortless Hanging Garden With These:

Start with a hanging pot as your anchor, then round out the space around it for that effortless, layered look.

The Virago is a matte 3.5-inch porcelain hanging pot, simple the way expensive things are simple: nothing extra, nothing to explain. At 3.5 inches tall it looks traditional and modern at once, a balance Chive didn't plan for and will take.

Porcelain fires hard and dense, so it holds its matte finish and sharp lines for years indoors. On its hanging cord it suits a small trailing plant, a string of pearls, or a young ivy still picking a direction. It hangs above the noise of a room and looks like it's always been there. That's the only trick it does, and it's enough.

Potting a Trailing Plant

Choose a trailing plant with a root ball that fits the planter with a little room to spare.
Add well-draining potting mix appropriate to your plant. Not garden soil. We know your grandmother used garden soil. She was wrong about this one thing.
Transplant from the nursery pot, leaving about ½ inch at the top for watering.
Water until the soil is evenly moist, letting any excess drain before you hang it.
Hang it where the foliage has room to fall, in bright, indirect light.

Pot Care instructions

Dishwasher-safe. Can also be hand-washed with warm soapy water and a soft cloth.
The glaze is dipped and kiln-fired — it is sealed, durable, and not looking for trouble. No special cleaning products required.
For pots with saucers empty the saucer periodically. Standing water in the saucer defeats the purpose of having a drainage hole, which is a thing we feel strongly about.
Not frost-safe. Designed for indoor use and covered outdoor temperate weather use. Freezing temperatures are not recommended.

Virago Ceramic Modern Hanging Planter

Blue Grey / B – Change

Simple the Way Expensive Things Are Simple

The Virago hanging planter is a 3.5-inch porcelain hanging planter, simple in the way expensive things are simple: nothing extra, nothing to explain, the kind of design that looks like it has always existed and was merely waiting for someone to notice it.

It manages to be traditional and modern at once, which is difficult to pull off and more difficult to plan for. We did not plan for it. It arrived looking like that, the way the genuinely good ones sometimes do, and we have learned not to ask too many questions when that happens.

It is made of porcelain, because apparently even hanging from a ceiling, things in this studio still need to be overdressed. At three and a half inches it suits a small trailing plant: a string of pearls, a young pothos, an ivy still deciding which direction to commit to.

Porcelain fires hard and dense, so it keeps its matte surface and clean edge through years indoors, hanging quietly above whatever is happening at eye level and outlasting most of it.

For all its restraint it is doing something quietly difficult, which is looking inevitable, and inevitability is the hardest quality in this studio to manufacture on purpose. The Virago looks discovered rather than designed, and we are content to let people assume exactly that.

Potting a plant with Chive

Place a 1-inch layer of small stones or LECA pebbles at the bottom of the pot. Optional, but it helps with airflow.
Add well-draining potting mix appropriate to your plant. Not garden soil. We know your grandmother used garden soil. She was wrong about this one thing.
Transplant from the nursery pot, leaving about 1 inch at the top for watering.
Set the pot on the matching saucer.
Water thoroughly until water runs out the drainage hole into the saucer. Empty the saucer once the plant has absorbed what it needs.

Repotting plants with Chive | Chive Studio

The Ultimate Repotting Guide

For those who have killed a plant. Or several. Or, frankly, many.

Before you put a plant into your new pot, you have to get it out of the nursery pot — a process that ends badly more often than any gardening influencer will admit. We wrote a full guide: when to repot (early spring, and not when you're feeling impulsive in October), which soil to use, how to tell your plant is root-bound, and how to avoid the three mistakes that kill perfectly healthy plants within a week of a well-intentioned repotting.

The New York Botanical Garden Did Not Ask How It Was Finished

Chive Studio designs hanging planters, pots, and ceramic flowers, and runs every shape through more revisions and arguments than anyone budgets for, because we are incapable of making something we do not mean. We design everything we sell, license nothing to other manufacturers, and have never sold to a big-box retailer.

Botanical institutions keep choosing the work, which we credit to buyers who can tell at a glance whether an object is what it claims to be. the New York Botanical Garden carries Chive. So do Brooklyn Botanic Garden and McKee Botanical Garden. RHS Chelsea Flower Show 5-star booth award, won twice — only two are given each year. We ship to over 40 countries, and the matte surface wipes clean and outlasts most of the furniture it hangs near, a claim we can make only because we have watched it hold up for years.

None of it is luck. It is the same standard applied to every planter we make, the small quiet ones and the ones named after words we are not going to print, every time.

Stylish

I have switched out all my plant pots to Chive drainage pots. Needless to say my plants are very stylish. Amazing customer service and always packaged so well. I live on the west coast of Vancouver Island. A long journey for my pots. Thank you so much. I will always support this shop.

I love the pot. My Chinese evergreen looks great in it. I like that the finish on the exterior is matte, while the interior is glossy. Very modern style. Love it.

Great little pot.

Love how these look. So cute and shiny and pretty colors.

Perfect size for an indoor house plant and great for small spaces.

Tiny but cute. The matte olive colour is great.

Excellent succulent pots!

They're just the right size for smaller succulents like haworthias and the matte black is really quite pretty. With a gravel top dressing your plants will really shine.

Chive Pots Are The Best!

I am in love with every pot I’ve ever ordered from Chive! I need to buy more plants to go with all the pots I want!! :)

Best ever

Gorgeous planter pot! High quality, great packing, fav planter ever!

Adorable

We already purchased one from a store in Marblehead, Ma. We knew we needed a match. They are so perfect & fit our other floral decor. The colors available are beautiful.

Beautiful pot

This pot is just beautiful. Received my order quickly. Unfortunately, during shipment the saucer was broken on 2 of the pots. Message sent to Chive and I received the sweetest note from them with instructions that they will quickly send replacement saucers. Great company with excellent customer service.

Love Chive planters!!

I have a bunch of planters from Chive and not one has ever disappointed me. All amazing quality and my plants couldn’t be happier 🌸🌿

Prettiest Pots Out There

Gorgeous planters at a great price. Bonus that Chive’s customer service is the best - friendly, responsive, knowledgeable, and efficient! I get compliments on these pots all the time and am 100% satisfied! Highly recommend!

Virago 5”

I bought 3 of these in different patterns. They are beautiful and I love them!

Beautiful Pot!

I am so happy with this beautiful pot. My plant looks stunning in it! My only wish is that Chive would make this in a larger size. All the pots that I have purchased from Chive are beautiful..the only place I buy house plant pots!

I just love the soft look of this pottery!

Perfect vessel for a clean modern look + healthy plants!

Porous, drainage whole and a saucers!! I recently purchased 4 planters from your site and absolutely love them. Succulents need to be in porous planters but I really didn't like the look of terra cotta. I wanted something dressy with clean lines. Big Virago is exactly what I was looking for! My plants are so happy and I get to enjoy the foliage and the beautiful vessel they grow in. Would love to purchase larger sizes.

Frequently asked questions

What is the Virago ceramic hanging planter good for?

The Virago is a ceramic hanging planter for indoor plants. It works well for trailing plants like pothos, string of pearls, and ivy and suits modern, boho, and minimalist rooms. As a ceramic hanging planter, the Virago fits a ceiling hook, bracket, or rod and pairs cleanly with the rest of the Chive pot range. It comes in several colorways to match different rooms.

Is the Virago a plant pot without a drainage hole?

No, the Virago is an indoor hanging planter without a drainage hole, so it is best used with plants that tolerate less frequent watering or as a cachepot. Either plant pothos directly and water lightly, or drop a nursery pot inside and lift it out to water. Without a drainage hole, the trick is to add water slowly and avoid leaving any pooled at the bottom.

What plants grow well in the Virago?

The Virago is a ceramic hanging planter that holds a nursery plant of a similar width, so match the grower pot to the opening rather than the mature size of the plant. Good choices include trailing plants like pothos, string of pearls, and ivy. For an indoor plant pot, size up by about an inch when you repot so roots have room without swimming in soil.

Does the Virago hanging planter include a tray?

The Virago does not include a saucer, which suits its use as a hanging planter. If you plant directly in it, water lightly so nothing collects at the base, or set a nursery pot inside and lift it out to water over a sink. A small cork pad underneath protects furniture if you keep the Virago on a shelf. As an indoor hanging planter without a tray, it is forgiving as long as you water with a light hand.

Are ceramic plant pots good for indoor plants?

Yes, the Virago is a ceramic plant pot. Ceramic is fired hard, holds glaze color well, and does not break down with watering the way untreated materials can, which makes ceramic plant pots a reliable choice for indoor plants. The Virago is glazed to seal the surface, so it wipes clean and keeps its finish on a sill, shelf, or table.

How do I care for plants in the Virago hanging planter?

To water the Virago, add small amounts and stop before anything pools at the bottom, since this hanging planter has no drainage hole. The easiest method is to keep the plant in its nursery pot, lift it out to water over a sink, let it drain, and set it back. Watering a pot without drainage is mostly about restraint, less water, less often.

Is the Virago a good ceramic pot for pothos?

The Virago is a good ceramic hanging planter for pothos. Trailing stems spill over the rim and hang well from a hook.Succulents like the tighter, fast-drying conditions of a pot without a drainage hole, as long as you water lightly. For anyone searching for a ceramic pot for pothos, the Virago covers both looks and function. Match the nursery pot to the opening and the plant settles in without fuss.

How is the Virago hanging planter hung?

The Virago hangs from a sturdy hook or bracket rated for the filled weight, which matters once soil and water are added. Hang it near a window for a trailing plant and leave room below so the foliage can drop. As an indoor hanging planter, the Virago works in a corner, over a sink, or beside a shelf where floor space is tight.
