Plants Anyone Can Grow

Peace Lily

Peace lilies have dark green, glossy leaves and elegant white blooms. They require very little natural light — in fact, their leaves burn easily when the plants are placed in direct sunlight. Research by NASA has concluded that peace lilies are one of the best indoor plants for improving indoor air quality. 

Jade

You'd have to try pretty hard to kill a jade plant. They can go long periods without water, and they don't require any special attention. Because of its upright growth habit, jade is a great choice for planting in decorative pots. 

Snake Plant

Snake plants are another easy-to-grow option that features an upright growth pattern. Because they can literally go months without being watered, they're an ideal choice for very busy people. Their dramatic outline adds a stunning design element to any room. 

Ficus

Otherwise known as fig trees, ficus is a small tree that asks for little more than a bright spot in your home and soil that's kept evenly moist. Make sure you place your ficus in an area where it has plenty of room to grow — these plants grow relatively fast and can easily reach a height of five feet or more in a matter of several years.
