Start Your Plant Journey with These Foolproof Favorites
New to plant parenthood? These five resilient indoor plants are nearly impossible to kill and will help you build confidence as you grow your green thumb.
1. Snake Plant
The ultimate beginner plant, snake plants can go weeks without water and tolerate almost any light condition. Their striking vertical leaves make a bold statement with minimal effort.
2. Pothos
Forgiving and fast-growing, pothos will let you know when they need water by drooping slightly—then perk right back up after a drink. They propagate easily, so you can share cuttings with friends.
3. Spider Plant
With arching leaves and baby plantlets, spider plants are both charming and resilient. They adapt to various conditions and naturally purify the air.
4. Rubber Plant
Bold, glossy leaves make rubber plants a stunning focal point. They prefer bright indirect light but are forgiving of occasional neglect.
5. Peace Lily
Elegant white blooms and lush foliage make peace lilies a favorite. They'll tell you when they're thirsty by wilting slightly, making it easy to know when to water.
Beginner Care Tips
Start with one or two plants and learn their rhythms. Most indoor plants prefer to dry out slightly between waterings. When in doubt, underwater rather than overwater—it's easier to revive a thirsty plant than save a waterlogged one.
