Dracaena family includes : Janet Craig, Corn Plant, Marginata, Warnecki, Ribbon Dracaena to name a few. They don't require much natural sunlight, but caution should be added when watering. Let the soil become dry, then water. But don't let the water sit too long- they can't stay in a saucer of stagnant water. Used as low light office plants, they are a good easy care plant- as long as you let them dry out, water the rootball totally, then let it get enough air to dry out again.

Comes in various forms and leaf patterns. The less variegation the leaves have, the lower light it can handle. Nearly indestructible.

As most tropical plants, there are so many different varieties. The more variegation in the leaves, the more light it may need. a popular plant in low light offices, shopping malls, and corner areas of homes. Try putting it in a large wicker basket (with liner). Raise the pot up with a brick- it makes a fabulous specimen plant.

Perhaps you will purchase this plant while it's blooming, don't be discouraged if the blooms die off and you're left with a beautiful full green leafed plant. Peace Lilies will bloom (when they want to) when the conditions are right for them inside your home. It could be once a year. Think of how excited you will be when that time comes! Keep their soil moist, they'll let you know when they need a drink. Don't let them sit in a saucer of stagnant water.

Here's a mouth full: Zamioculas Zamiifolia. However, as hard as it is to say it's botanical name, it's easier to take care of this plant. Little care, little light, little effort. It's almost like a fresh green statue that could care less if you look after it - or not.

Chamadorea Elegans, a fairly inexpensive palm tree that grows only about 3' tall and wide. Does not like strong sun, and is a perfect choice for filtered or lower light interiors. Be warned that you need to mist this plant with a mild insecticidal soap to keep insects away, or simply wash it under the hose monthly. It's a wonderful palm, just keep an eye on it.

Philodendron come in all sorts of shapes and sizes. Not all Philodendrons can survive in the deep shade of your home or office. Selloum, Swiss Cheese and larger leaf varieties do better with brighter yet indirect light. Pothos (a distant relative of Philodendron) needs more light- or the variegation color will fade. Marble Queen (white and green) needs the most. Cousin Nepthytis (Arrowhead Vine) will do nicely, but trim it to keep it maintained. Let soil dry between waterings.

This elegant palm is perfect for a side of a window that gets only strong morning sun for about an hour, then normal indirect light the rest of the day. It's soil doesn't like to be too dry, so water it thoroughly (run water on the root ball for about 3 minutes) and let it drain. Then put it back where you had it. If this is not possible, then make sure it is kept on the dry side of damp at all times. Cut off any dead small fronds that may appear at bottom.

One of the most misunderstood plants, they are usually sold in a little vase of water. They grow in water, in soil, in the sun, in the dark. Pretty much indestructable. They can be trained to bend shape and grow any way you want them- the more intricate the shape is, the more valuable they become. Try one today- they don't cost all that much- usually under $5 for a couple of stalks, plain. They're fun to play with!
