6 Houseplants You Can't Kill6 Houseplants You Can't Kill. No green thumb? No problem!Here are six botanical best bets that can survive some neglect. 
1 Asparagus fern. (asparagus setaceus). Even if its soil is bone dry, this vigorous relative of the edible stalk won't go into a permanent swoon. 2 Cast-iron plant. (Aspidistra elatior). Vacation plans? Don't fret. This plant will be healthy upon your return - even if it's neglected for weeks. 3 Chinese evergreen. (Aglaonema modestum). It actually prefers the soil to dry between waterings and needs little light to thrive in your home. 4 Grape ivy. (Cissus species). A handsome vine with tendrils resembling those of grapes, this plant adapts easily to limited light and soil that's a bit on the dry side. 5 `Janet Craig' dracaena. (Dracaena deremensis `Janet Craig'). This shrub-like plant with broad leaves adapts to low light and favors moderately dry soil. 6 Ponytail. (Beaucarnea species). This succulent requires little grooming and does best when not kept too wet - just give it lots of sun and let the soil dry between waterings.  Custom Search Keeping Houseplants Healthy
