Angel Vine Plants for Sale Online
Angel Vine Plants make a good trailing plant indoors, especially when planted in Hanging Baskets or grown on a shelf. The small, round green leaves appear to grow from a thin, nearly black wiry vine. They are also known as Muehlenbeckia in some plant circles.
This houseplant also makes an excellent topiary and takes well to pruning and shaping. Pruning helps to keep the plant more compact and bushy, encouraging more branching. Indoors, it makes a pretty low maintenance houseplant.
Angel Vine does well with bright indirect or direct light for several hours. With more light, the plants will need to be watered more often. Luckily, these plants can dry out occasionally as well. They do not need high humidity, but would not mind it either. Angel Vine takes well to pruning and will stay more compact. Sometimes, these plants can be coaxed to flower inside, but chances of flowering are better outdoors.

How to Care for Angel Vine
Before you buy an Angel Vine Plant, make sure to read about the recommended care instructions to keep this plant healthy and thriving.
What is the best light for Angel Vine Plant?
Angel Vines prefers bright, direct light, but will tolerate some bright, indirect light as well. A western or southern window would be best, but plants could handle eastern exposure. If your plant is not receiving enough light, it will produce less leaves.
How do I water Angel Vines?
Angel Vines can dry out and stay fairly dry, but do like to be watered occasionally when being transplanted or before established. Indoors, they prefer to stay on the dryer side, which discourages root rot or other fungal problems. Thankfully, these plants are very forgiving and are able to survive a missed watering.
How do I fertilize Angel Vine?
Any all purpose, foliage fertilizer will work for Angel Vines. Indoor houseplant fertilizers fall into two groups: water soluble, liquid quick release, and granular, slow release fertilizers. Jack's Classic Indoor plant food works well as a powder, quick release fertilizer that is mixed with water to quickly provide nutrients to a plant that has been in a container for an extended time. Osmocote Indoor/Outdoor is an option as a granular, slow release fertilizer that can be applied while potting and planting. Any type of fertilizer offers nutrients that help plants with the transition to a new environment.
What soil should I use for my Angel Vine?
Angel Vines are tolerant of a wide variety of conditions, but prefer that their soil is kept fairly dry. It is best to use a soil mix that has some sand in it to encourage optimal drainage.
