5 of the Easiest Indoor Plants for Beginners
We want to breathe life into our homes, but many of us who don’t have green fingers have found that our plants turn brown quickly. So Lukreser Braxton (aka @soulsistaplants ) is here to talk about her five favorite plants and how to care for them.
First, pay attention to the lighting conditions in your home; then decide how often you want to take care of the plant itself. And remember, only bring home what you love!
Heart Leaf Philodendron
- Looks great in a hanging pot or on a shelf where leaves can hang.
- Place in bright indirect light.
- Water every 7-10 days.
Sansevieria Snake Factory
- Excellent as a gift!
- Water every 3 weeks during the growing season, once a month in winter.
- You can install it and forget, but don’t forget completely .
Syngonium
- Supplied in all variants.
- Water every 3-4 weeks or when you notice leaf dropping.

Factory ZZ
