We don't all have a back yard in which to enjoy beautiful flowers and shrubs. So what do we condo- and apartment dwellers do if we want some greenery? No need to go for faux -- Frank Ferragine recently blogged about his favourite indoor plants on Breakfast Television's website, and here are his choices.
Frank's top picks for indoor plants:
ZZ Plant (Zamioculcas zamiifolia) – Low light to bright light. My all time favorite. Exotic look. Keep out of reach of children and pets considered toxic.
Peace Lily (Spathiphyllum) – Low light to medium light. Air purifier, large leaves, white blooms. Sap of peace lily is poisonous.
Mother-in-Laws Tongue (Sansaveria) – Tough, tough, tough, if you neglect plants this one will survive. Keep out of reach of pets.
Spider Plants (Chlorophytum) – The best selection for those moving out on their own for the first time.
Philodendrons – The range of types of philodendrons is incredible by favorite is Swiss cheese or fiddle leaf. Keep away from children and pets.
Pothos Plant (Epipremnum aureum) – Vine like plant, easy to grow and easy to propagate via cuttings. Keep away from children and pets.
