Bolivian Wandering Jew plant
1 recommendation
"Hanging baskets of Wandering Jew are pretty easy to care for- you just need to water them when the soil is dry- if it gets really dry the plant will get a faded look to remind you. They need indirect sunlight and should be turned so they grow evenly."
Rubber Tree Plant
1 recommendation
"Unless the ants carry it away (see High Hopes by Sinatra) you'll never say "Whoops there goes another rubber tree plant" because these guys bounce back from almost anything. The only thing they really do need is a sunny window."
4" Variegated Spider / Airplane Plant
1 recommendation
"Just one spider plant can turn into dozens with a little tending- just stick the hanging baby plants and in a pot and snip them free when they've rooted. Spider plants need light and pretty much the worst thing you can do is over water them- and they survive even that for quite a while."
Pothos plant
2 recommendations
"Most of us have seen the Pothos with its characteristic glossy heart shaped leaves. The Pothos is great because it's really, really, hard to kill, grows fast and tolerates low light well. It's a climbing plant so you can train it using strings to add a vertical swathe of green almost anywhere."
ThirstyLight
3 recommendations
"ThirstyLight sends out a signal in the form of a blinkin' LED light when your plants' soil gets dry. That's handled by a "Drypoint Digital Circuit," which checks moisture levels once per second and is able to discern between five different levels of dryness (relayed to you by blinking patterns of increasing urgency). $10"
LECHUZA - Self watering planters
1 recommendation
"Groovy self-watering planters made by a division of Playmobil. Lots of designs & colors to choose from, and they all work indoors or outdoors. I've seen shops marking these up as much as $60 over the cost of ordering them from Lechuza.com, so be forewarned."
Dinosaur Plant
1 recommendation
"This is a unique plant. The Dinosaur Plant has been around for 290 million years or so. It transforms from a brownish state to a vibrant green bush in a few hours. This is a great plant for someone with a brown thumb because it can hibernate for up to 50 years. Whenever it runs out of water it will become dormant until you water it again."
