🌿 Silver-white veined leaves and plain green leaves • 📏 70 cm of trailing stems • 🪢 Natural rope, ready to hang • 🌑 No light or watering needed • 🐾 Non-toxic to pets • ✨ Green all year round
The artificial hanging Fittonia brings together two kinds of foliage on light green stems that cascade down: oval leaves traced with a fine network of silver-white veins, in the manner of the fittonia, and oval, pointed leaves in plain green. This mix of marbled and smooth leaves gives depth to the cascade and a realistic look, even up close.
It comes in a black Ø9.5 cm pot already fitted with its natural rope: it can be hung straight out of the box, and its 70 cm of trailing stems dress a wall, a corner or the top of a shelf. Like all our artificial plants, it keeps its leaves and colour all year round, whether in a dark room or an air-conditioned office.
Artificial or real Fittonia?
The fittonia is a ground-covering plant native to the tropical forests of South America, known for its leaves veined in white, pink or red, which grows close to the ground. This artificial version takes up its veined leaves on long 70 cm trailing stems, with no watering or need for light, even high up on a wall or at the back of a room.
If your room is bright and you enjoy watching a plant grow, our living hanging and trailing plants take over, such as the Ceropegia woodii 'Variegata', the variegated string of hearts, the trailing ivy Hedera helix in a hanging pot or the Kokodama Monstera Minima.
Where to place it?
As it needs no light, it can go wherever it makes the most impact, even far from a window.
- From the ceiling: on a hook, in a living room corner, above an armchair or a console table, in a bedroom.
- On the wall: on a wall hook or wall bracket, next to a bookcase, a mirror or in an entryway.
- Up high: set on a shelf or the top of a bookcase or wardrobe, with the stems trailing down the side of the furniture.
- Workspaces: office, reception, waiting room, shop window.
- Space needed: its 70 cm length, plus the rope, below the hanging point, so that the stems hang freely above the walkway.
- Avoid: prolonged direct sun behind glass, which fades the colours over time, and placing it right next to a radiator.
It is designed for indoor use: on a balcony or terrace, sun and rain would damage its leaves.
Setting up & care
When it arrives, take a few minutes to give it its final shape: that's what makes the difference between a stiff artificial plant and a hanging plant that looks alive.
- Hanging up: loop the rope over a securely fixed ceiling hook, wall hook or rail.
- Shaping: spread the stems apart from one another and let them fall at different lengths, with the leaves facing outwards.
- Dusting: a quick pass with a feather duster or soft cloth from time to time.
- Cleaning: a slightly damp cloth over the leaves, then a dry cloth.
- Over time: it lasts from one year to the next, with no repotting or fertiliser.
Give the stems a slight wave rather than letting them hang dead straight, and turn a few leaves sideways: the cascade instantly looks more natural.
Decor ideas & pairings
Hanging up, it brings greenery without taking up floor space, an idea worth keeping in mind to choose between a hanging plant and a large plant to suit your space.
- For a shelf or a bookcase, place the pot on the top shelf and let the stems trail down the uprights: the black pot blends into dark furniture and stands out against light wood.
- For a contrast of foliage and heights, hang it near our artificial Camellia sinensis, our artificial Mahonia fortunei, our artificial pine, our artificial Polyscias, our artificial Zamioculcas, our artificial Alocasia, our artificial Philodendron selloum, our artificial red philodendron, our artificial Pachira, our artificial Kentia, our artificial Magnolia grandiflora, our artificial Dracaena reflexa, our artificial eucalyptus, our artificial Monstera deliciosa or our artificial Ficus lyrata — their toothed leaves, their needles, their leaflets, their fronds and their large round, split, perforated or fiddle-shaped leaves echo the small veined leaves trailing down from the fittonia.
Against a coloured wall or a dark background, the network of silver-white veins and the line of the trailing stems stand out clearly.
Verdeia tips
- Hang it at the right height: as with indoor hanging plants, adjust the rope so that the whole cascade can be seen, above a piece of furniture or the walkway.
- Mix the two types of foliage: spread the veined leaves and the plain green leaves all around the pot rather than on one side only, for a full cascade from every angle.
- Create a green corner: explore our full range of artificial plants and flowers to pair hanging foliage with plants placed on the floor.

Our Verdeia commitments
FAQ – Everything to know before adopting your Verdeia plant
How are my plants prepared before shipping?
All our plants are selected from our European partner nurseries. Before shipping, they are watered, cleaned, and protected with breathable, secure packaging. Each package is designed to ensure your plant arrives in perfect health, without any transport-related stress.
Will the plant look exactly like the photo?
The photos accurately represent the variety and the stated size. Since each plant is unique, slight differences in shape, foliage, or color may occur — and that’s part of their charm.
What are the delivery times and conditions?
Orders ship within 48 working hours, with tracked delivery in 2 to 5 working days via DPD. Shipping costs and the free-shipping threshold depend on your country — see our delivery page. You receive a tracking link as soon as your parcel leaves.
What should I do when my plant arrives?
Open your package as soon as you receive it and carefully remove the plant from its packaging. Let it acclimate for 24 hours in its new environment before watering. If it has been slightly stressed during transport, it will recover its shape after one or two days in the light.
What should I do if my plant arrives damaged?
Contact us within 48 hours with a photo of the issue. Our team will assess the situation and offer you the best solution: replacement, partial refund, or recovery advice.
Can I return a plant?
Since plants are living beings, standard returns are not possible. However, we guarantee good health upon delivery: if the plant arrives damaged, it will be replaced free of charge. For any other cases (order error, decorative pot, accessory), returns are possible within 14 days.
