Water: Before watering, it is best to insert your finger slightly into the soil to check the moisture level. If the soil feels completely dry, then you can go ahead and water the plant.

Pothos

If you are looking for an undemanding tropical plant for your home them pothos is a great start. It can be grown in water or dry soil and does well in low or indirect sunlight which makes it a perfect choice for a hanging plant.  Direct sunlight often leads to dead foliage of the plant hence avoiding it would be the best option.

 

Palms

There are around 2800 tropical and sub-tropical palm tree species that can make beautiful indoor plants. The many species call for careful selection of the type of palm to keep indoors since not all of them need direct sunlight to grow. However, most indoor palm trees thrive in moist but well-drained soil and easily adapt to low light.

 

Boston Fern
