Topic: Which Houseplant?

[cacran]

I bought a gorgeous old fashioned bird cage from a car boot the other day. I bought it to grow a house plant in. I can't decide which plant to get. Any ideas??

Oh....asparagus fern would look lovely in bird gage.. http://www.spaldingbulb.co.uk/product/common-asparagus-fern/
...of if you want something more 'dangly'.. http://www.spaldingbulb.co.uk/product/sprenger-s-asparagus-fern/

Well I hope it is a big cage for an asparagus fern. Something simple like a small prayer plant in the middle then a few hanging variegated philodendrons around the edge and hang the cage high.

What about a plain old spider plant, hang it high as Ace says, all the 'babies' can dangle through the bars....remember those macrame hangers we all had in the 1970's?

 I think spider plants have gone out of fashion, there was a time when every office had one.  You could fill your house for a few pounds on ebay.

Thank you for all your suggestions.
