8 of the Easiest Houseplants Anyone Can Grow
We've compiled a list of the easiest houseplants anyone can grow.
Maybe you once had a houseplant, and it quickly became a wilted, yellowing embarrassment. Or, maybe you've never had a houseplant because you're not sure you can keep it alive.
Don't be discouraged! Success with houseplants starts with finding the right plant for you. Maybe you just need a houseplant that you won't mind if you forget to water every now and then. Or a houseplant that will survive a week on its own when you're out of town for your friend's wedding.
Check out these 8 easy houseplants that are hard to kill and you'll see there's a houseplant out there for everyone, whether you have a green thumb or not.
Monstera
Adaptable to almost all light conditions, and somewhat drought tolerant, Monstera is a stunning, low-maintenance tropical plant.
Watch out for: Crispy leaves mean the plant is sunburned or not getting enough water, yellow leaves mean too much water. But don't worry, Monsteras are incredibly forgiving and recover quickly!
Sansevieria
This hardy plant will thrive in any type of light, from low-light areas to bright, full sun. Sansevieria don't need much water, aren't sensitive to temperature changes, and don't require any additional care. They're also highly sought-after for their air-purifying properties.
Watch out for: Yellow, fallen leaves and a funny smell, which could indicate overwatering.
ZZ Plant
Virtually indestructible, the ZZ plant will do its best if you basically ignore it. It thrives in areas where many plants don't, making it one of the best office or bathroom plants. The ZZ plant requires very little water and prefers to be kept on the dry side.
Watch out for: Yellow leaves mean the plant is getting too much water.
Spider plant
This plant thrives in bright, indirect sunlight and will tolerate low-light areas where other plants might not thrive. Water your spider plant when the top 2 inches of soil are dry, and it will be perfectly happy in your home.
Watch out for: Drooping can be a sign of underwatering, while yellow or soft, brown leaves can be a sign of excessive dehydration.
Aloe spider
A cousin of Aloe Vera, the Hedgehog Aloe plant requires a sunny spot in your home and can even be kept outdoors during the summer. This low-maintenance plant requires very little water, making it very easy to care for.
Watch out for: Wilting leaves in the summer mean underwatering, yellowing leaves probably mean overwatering.
Dracaena
This bright and variegated plant thrives in low to medium light conditions. It only needs to be watered when the soil starts to feel dry, making it a perfect plant for anyone who's always on the go.Watch out for: Brown tips mean the humidity is too low.
Ponytail palm
This succulent likes bright light and will even tolerate full sun. To keep your Ponytail Palm happy, all you need to do is find a sunny spot, remember to water it occasionally, and enjoy!
Caution: Leaf tips turning brown could be caused by salts in tap water.
