    Get a snake plant ( sansiveria ) or a pothos. Both can survive indoors easily, need very little light, water only about once a week, and are damn near impossible to kill.

      They told me the same about pothos. I got two seedlings, and they both died within the first month… Never knew what I did wrong.

          You’re probably right. They were just handed to me by my father since I wanted a plant and he had pothos of his own already.

          How resilient would you say European ivys (ivies?) are compared to pothos? I was gifted one of those, full plant, and it also died. Since then there’s been the running gag in my circles that my bedroom is absolutely inhospitable to plant life (kinda true, it gets very little light). But now you’ve got me wondering if a grown pothos could actually overcome the curse.

            I haven’t tried it, but also I’m a notorious plant killer, so i had to research a ton of low light / low maintenance plants, and I don’t remember seeing European ivy’s there.

            I’d def recommend a pothos, and also like farmer heck does, watch some youtubes on low maintenance house plants.
