So, your green thumb is black, and you want to start your indoor oasis? You can’t manage high-maintenance plants that die when you forget to water them! I get it. You are a very busy “black thumb!” Are you frustrated that others seem to pop those finicky beauties in the dirt, and they appear to thrive with no effort made? In the meantime, you plant a simple flower, research maintenance, and follow the instructions to the letter. The stage is now set for success, then bam, plant death. Well, fret not, my friend! I have you covered. I am handing you the perfect solution. Here is a list of plants that even you cannot destroy. Well, with minimal effort applied!
The Christmas Cactus Plants
This little beauty, also known as the holiday cactus, is a member of the succulent family. It is easy to care for and will provide a pop of color in winter with brightly blooming flowers. You, of course, will have to care for it correctly, though. They love sandy soil and only need water once it completely dries. Place this plant in a bright spot away from direct sunlight and enjoy your success. No green thumb is required!
The Chinese Evergreen Plants
This lush plant, also called the aglaonema, is a true chameleon when it comes to lighting conditions. It can adapt and grow in almost any setting, except for direct sunlight. There are several varieties, ranging from dark green with silvery tones to red and even pink. These beauties grow at a leisurely pace and need very little water. Water should be added only when the soil dries out. These simple steps will keep this plant thriving, as though you are working hard to tend to it!
The Pothos Plants
One of the hardiest house plants you can find, the pothos, is known as a trailing plant. It can tolerate almost any indoor lighting condition, so you can place it anywhere. This jewel only needs water when approximately the top inch of soil becomes dry. The heart-shaped leaves of the pothos can be found in solid colors of green and gold. They can also be mixed with white, yellow, or light green. This plant can grow as much as a foot per month if cared for properly. However, it’s important to note that the leaves and stems of this plant can be toxic to animals, so be mindful of your furry friends.
The Aloe Vera Plants
A trendy house plant, the aloe vera plant, is also one of the easiest plants to grow. This simple yet elegant plant needs at least 4 hours of indirect sunlight each day. It does not require much water. Let the soil dry out between each watering. Too much water is the true villain in the aloe world, not your black thumb! As you may know, the juice from aloe vera is quite helpful for burns and skin health. Place it in the kitchen for those quick first-aid moments!
The Peace Lily Plants
A great indoor plant option, the peace lily is easy to tend to and blooms! In the springtime, it develops beautiful white flowers. These blooms sway gracefully on long, shiny green stalks for several weeks. This lovely flower requires a shady spot without much sunlight. Water the plant only when the soil is dry an inch deep. It is important to note that the peace lily is toxic to dogs, cats, and humans! This plant should be cautiously placed if you have small children or pets who enjoy munching on foliage.
