No house plants here...first reason our cat Miss Stella, second reason we can have plants outdoor all year around here in AZ also with sun screens on our windows we do not have direct sunlight indoors. :)

I have 3 Geranium's on my kitchen window sill. A pink, white and red. I really don't have much of a green thumb. But, I do pretty well with these. They like to be ignored for the most part. And, they are my favorite plant.

Unfortunately none on the windows in this house have nice deep enough sills for plants....great news for any plant I might consider bringing here to torture and kill.

I have a few. Used to have a lot, but due to aquiring 3 parrots, whos cages take up all my plant space, I'm down to a few plants now.
Ponytail Palm Bonsai. Yucca tree (have had it 36 years) 2 Plumerias (friend sent me starts from Hawaii) Aloe plant. I had a lot of roses outside. 53 hybrid teas & 5 climbers. One climber is over 105 years old now. It was my Great Grandmothers rose bush. Sadly, due to health issues, I only have the climbers left. |
I have one plant maybe a rhododendrons? That thing will not give up on me even when I forget to water it for weeks. I use to have a green thumb with lots of plants. I don't know what happened over the years. Now my sister calls me the Kavorkian of plants. I just kill them all

I used to have house plants in the house I had when living in NC.
That home had TONS of big windows, and it was very bright in all the rooms (living/dining room and the morning room). 5 of my plants were vines 2 philodendron, 2 wandering jews, 1 swedish ivy. These 5 plants grew so well that they went around the ceiling of all the rooms (except bedrooms and bathrooms). My swedish plant didn't grow as fast as the others. I also had a mother-in-law tongue that was only had 5 blades with the tallest being about 10-11 inches. When we moved into our new home I put this plant on a plant stand in the corner of of my morning room. It must have really liked being in that spot because with 3 months I had to replant it in a larger pot it had about 10 blades and was about 19-20" tall. By the time I had been in my new home for a year I had to repot that plant 4 times until the last pot was 15" diam and was almost touching the ceiling. Sadly in 1998 I left NC (lots of personal reasons), I couldn't bring any of my plants with me. A year after I left had to go back and close up my home and get it ready to sale. ALL my plants were dead they hadn't been watered or taken care of in that year I was gone. I tried to grow house plants here, but my condo has NO good natural light my balcony does face south, but it doesn't get good light either. |
I have none since all I could ever grow were weeds! :(
I do have a lot of silk plants. Does that count?? All you have to do is dust them occasionally. |
I have a Hoya plant that's nearly 30 years old. I got the start from my ex SIL and she's been out of the family for at least 15 years. It has a very fragrant bloom that DH finds totally disgusting. I have other plants, too, but not as many as in the past.

I have lots of house plants....they go to porch and patio for the summer.....HOWEVer this summer, while they have been outside, I acquired a PVC small quilting frame which is now in that window......I'm beginner to wonder if the plants will have a home come October......
I live in a small town home, not much room for anything...and my only other large window has my cutting table in front of it, so no plants there, for sure. As the King said...."It is a puzzlement!" |
I have lot of plants in my garden but none in the house, small house
