What kinds of plants make the best house plants?

I really want to bring some live plants into my home, but I have no idea what kind I should get.......or how to take care of them!


Thanks

Ugh...florists don't always know, trust me. We can tell you all about how to arrange flowers and most likely the schientific names of them, but not so much how to grow them. In fact, many of the other florists in my shop don't even keep house plants. Anyhoo...I have always foung pothos extremely forgiving. They droop when thristy then perk right back up. Also, mother in law tongues are good as well as diffenbachia. Stay away from ficus and peace lilies if you want easy. Oh...there is a plant at home depot called something like zzxx plant or something. It has weird letters in it. It is so easy!
Reply:Ivy, they are hard to kill, just water occasionally and let them be.





You can even leave them just in water. Ivy do love crowded roots so you don't have to worry about transplanting them either.
Reply:Geraniums are fairly easy to keep alive. You should put them next to a window, and water them once a week, with 1-2 cups of water. When you buy it, make shure that the pot it's in is quite big, otherwise you may have to transplant it when it gets bigger.
Reply:Spider plants, aloe vera plants, any kind of philadedrum plants, some kinds of ivy plants......or cactus are very hardy also.......





You could probably go to a florist shop and ask them .....they could probably assist you on that.......or a garden centre will also do.
