Are you looking to get a new plant, but not exactly sure where to start? Maybe you haven’t had a lot of success with keeping your plants healthy and want something that is low maintenance? I’ve put together a list of some of the easiest plants to grow for beginners or people that might not have a lot of time to devote to tending to plant maintenance. These plants generally don’t need a lot of attention and are happy in many different environments. These are also great plants to give as gifts!
A brief message about overall plant care for better success
Before we talk about the different available plant options, let me say this. The biggest thing you can do for all of your plants, to keep them happy, is to just give them consistent attention. You really only need to check on them once or twice a week for a minute or two. That is such a small amount of time so it can be easy to push it off and say you will get to it later, but if you do that, you will get into the habit of doing that. And your plants will suffer because of it. Set a reminder on your phone, or leave yourself a note, but stay consistent! If you just check on your plants consistently, after a few weeks you won’t even think about it. It will just become automatic. And then when an issue arises, you will notice it much faster and be able to deal with it much faster. In turn, this will promote a healthier and happier plant.
The Spider Plant
This particular spider plant is known as a variegated Ocean Spider Plant, but there are many varieties of the spider plant and they are all easy to grow. They are happy in almost any area of the house, as long as it get’s an adequate amount of daylight. It doesn’t need direct sunlight, but it doesn’t want to live in a dark closet either. As long as it’s getting some light, it should be totally fine. Water it normally and it’s going to be happy for many years. Once it get’s big enough, it will start to sprout “plantlets” or baby spider plants! You can take these and plant them to make new spider plants. Just cut them off and place them in a glass of water so the root is sitting in the glass and the leaves are sitting outside. Put that glass in a window and within a few weeks, you will have roots! You can now plant it in soil and start the process over again. You can also try planting them in a nice pot and selling them. It could be a nice little side business. No matter what you do, you should have no problems keeping your spider plants happy and healthy for many years to come.
The Snake Plant
This is a combination moisture, pH, Temperature, and light meter. It will definitely help with just about all of your plants needs.
The Snake plant is a very hearty plant that you will often see just about everywhere. Just like the spider plant, it comes in many different varieties, but they are all easy to grow and very temperamental. It does like a fair amount of sunlight each day, but it can also survive in lower lighting conditions just fine. It can go longer in between waterings than many plants and will be fine. The one thing that it really doesn’t like is to be overwatered. So if you are unsure about how much water to give it, then error on the side of caution and water it less than you think it needs. If you are still unsure and need some help figuring it out, you can always buy a moisture meter. They are relatively inexpensive and will help to take the guesswork out of watering.
Cactus
One plant that many of us forget about is the Cactus. When it comes to low maintenance plants, the cactus is about as easy as it gets. And what is the golden rule for keeping them happy? Do not overwater! If you keep them indoors, then they are fine for whatever temperature you keep your home. If you keep them outside, then keep in mind that they don’t like the cold temps. If you live in a part of the world where you get cold winters, then you will want to bring them inside for the winter months. I usually water mine every couple of months or so and they are happy as can be.
Ferns
Ferns are one of those plants that many people may not even consider when thinking about plants to choose for home, but don’t be so quick to skip them. They add a nice element to your home with little care. There are many versions available and they are all very easy to maintain. They don’t like hot direct sunlight, but other than that, they should be happy in most areas of your home. They are happiest with bright indirect light, but will be fine in lower light environments too. They are also more forgiving to overwatering than many plants.
Succulents
In the botany world, succulents are plants with parts that are thickened, fleshy, and engorged, usually to retain water in arid climates or soil conditions. Now it is true that they are not the easiest plants to grow, don’t let that dissuade you from trying one! They are actually easier then their reputation would have you think. They need to be in a window that receives a good amount of sun everyday. Generally speaking, that would be either a south or west facing window. Succulents like to have the soil dry out completely between watering. So again, you may want to get a moisture meter to see exactly how dry the soil is before you water. It may seem slightly intimidating, but as long as you pay consistent attention to the water and light situation, you should be just fine growing succulents.
Golden Pothos
There is a certainly a reason golden pothos is one of the very most popular hanging plants. In its native habitat, golden pothos grows into a monster plant with really big yellow and green leaves. As a houseplant, the plant will grow at a rather rapid pace from pots or trailing baskets with little care. Check on it as you would all of your other plants. No special care is needed. It is also an easy plant to propagate. Just take a few cuttings and put them in a glass of water in a bright window. It will have new roots within a few weeks.
The Jade plant
Jade is also a very popular succulent and many people have said it is known to bring good luck. It has deep green colors with oval leaves on thick fleshy stems. It’s a relatively low maintenance plant. Just make sure it has bright, indirect light and a well-draining soil. Water more frequently in the spring and summer than the fall and winter, making sure the soil is never soggy. As with most of the plants we have seen today, it’s more important to underwater the plants than to overwater them.
Conclusion
There are many plants that can go on this list, but we will end it here. Now at least you know a few plants that you know you can easily grow, even if you don’t have much time to devote to their needs. Keeping just a few plants in your home is known to boost overall feelings of happiness. Once you have these in your home and you see just how easy they are to keep happy and healthy, you will be able to try plants that are less tolerant to inconsistent care. Before you know it, you will have way more plants in you home than you would ever imagine.

LED stands for light emitting diode. LED lighting products produce light up to 90% more efficiently than incandescent light bulbs. How do they work? An electrical current passes through a microchip, which illuminates the tiny light sources we call LEDs and the result is visible light.
How long does L.E.D. lighting last?
The useful life of LED lighting products is defined differently than that of other light sources, such as incandescent or compact fluorescent lighting (CFL). LEDs typically do not “burn out” or fail. Instead, they experience ‘lumen depreciation’, wherein the brightness of the LED dims slowly over time. Unlike incandescent bulbs, LED “lifetime” is established on a prediction of when the light output decreases by 30 percent.
How are LEDs Used in Lighting?
LEDs are incorporated into bulbs and fixtures for general lighting applications. Small in size, LEDs provide unique design opportunities. Some LED bulb solutions may physically resemble familiar light bulbs and better match the appearance of traditional light bulbs. Some LED light fixtures may have LEDs built in as a permanent light source. There are also hybrid approaches where a non-traditional “bulb” or replaceable light source format is used and specially designed for a unique fixture. LEDs offer a tremendous opportunity for innovation in lighting form factors and fit a wider breadth of applications than traditional lighting technologies.
LED lighting differs from incandescent and fluorescent in several ways. When designed well, LED lighting is more efficient, versatile, and lasts longer.
LEDs are “directional” light sources, which means they emit light in a specific direction, unlike incandescent and CFL, which emit light and heat in all directions. That means LEDs are able to use light and energy more efficiently in a multitude of applications. However, it also means that sophisticated engineering is needed to produce an LED light bulb that shines light in every direction.
Common LED colors include amber, red, green, and blue. To produce white light, different color LEDs are combined or covered with a phosphor material that converts the color of the light to a familiar “white” light used in homes. Phosphor is a yellowish material that covers some LEDs. Colored LEDs are widely used as signal lights and indicator lights, like the power button on a computer.
In a CFL, an electric current flows between electrodes at each end of a tube containing gases. This reaction produces ultraviolet (UV) light and heat. The UV light is transformed into visible light when it strikes a phosphor coating on the inside of the bulb. Learn more about CFLs.
Incandescent bulbs produce light using electricity to heat a metal filament until it becomes “white” hot or is said to incandesce. As a result, incandescent bulbs release 90% of their energy as heat.
Why should I choose ENERGY STAR certified LED lighting products?
There are more lighting options available today than ever before. Despite that, ENERGY STAR is still the simple choice to save on your utility bills.
LED bulbs that have earned the ENERGY STAR are subject to very specific requirements designed to replicate the experience you are used to with a standard bulb—so they can be used for a wide variety of applications. As the graphic on the right demonstrates, a general purpose LED bulb that does not qualify for the ENERGY STAR may not distribute light everywhere and could prove to be a disappointment if used in a table lamp.
ENERGY STAR means high quality and performance, particularly in the following areas:
Color Quality
5 different requirements for color to ensure quality up front and over time
Light Output
Light output minimums to ensure you get enough light
Light distribution requirements to ensure the light goes where you need it
Guidelines for equivalency claims to take the guess-work out of replacement
Peace of mind
Verified compliance with more than 20 requirements to address performance and labeling
Long-term testing to back up lifetime claims
Testing to stress the products in operating environments similar to how you will use the product in your home
3-year minimum warranty requirement
And as with all ENERGY STAR products, certified LED bulbs are subject to random testing every year to ensure they continue to meet the ENERGY STAR requirements.
For more information on how to select an ENERGY STAR certified bulb for each application in your home, view the ENERGY STAR Light Bulb Purchasing Guide (PDF, 1.49 MB) or use the interactive online Choose a Light tool.

Have you ever heard the saying “an ounce of prevention beats a pound of cure?” It basically means that a small amount of prevention will do much more good for you than a large amount of solution after something has happened. We can apply that saying to many different circumstances in our lives and our gardening habits are certainly no exception. It will be less likely that we will be dealing with pest infestations if we stay on top of the little things consistently. Now, for some plants, that could mean daily attention is needed. For others it can be weekly or less. The overall health of your plants will be better if you give them better attention consistently. This will make everything much easier when you finally do come across some trespassers in the foliage! Whether you are dealing with indoor plants, a greenhouse, or tending to your garden in the back, you will eventually come across some pests. It is just a matter of time. Here are a few natural pest solutions that are completely safe and natural to help you keep the bugs away.
When purchasing new plants at your local home and garden stores, be sure to inspect them before buying. It’s not uncommon to bring home pests in a new plant from the store. Be sure to inspect any fresh cut flowers or clippings that you may bring inside from your own garden / landscaping as well.
Potted plants that are left outside during the warmer months are vulnerable to bugs crawling into their soil. Inspect them before you bring them into your home. You may need to replace the soil as this is a common place for bugs to live. Be sure to check the bottom of the leaves as well.
Wash / clean the leaves of your plants every week or two. If possible, bring the plant over to your sink and spray all of the plant surfaces. Another option is to use a spray bottle filled with water. You may want to take the plant outside for this as it can get messy quickly. Try to spray the plant from all angles. Be gentle with everything, but also really try to wash the entire plant. It is much harder for a pest outbreak to happen when it doesn’t have a solid chance to get established. This will also improve your overall plant health and the look of the plant itself. These spray bottles are technically for hair, but I think they work great for plants! I love the continuous mist. I think it really does well for cleaning your houseplants as well as watering the leaves.
Identify and isolate any infested plants as soon as possible. The sooner you spot any problems, the easier it will be able to deal with any issues that may come your way. When you find that one of your plants has signs of an infestation, move it away from other plants preferably outside of the home or greenhouse.
If it is a severe infestation, you may want to try taking a couple clippings to propagate & then toss the mother plant. It sucks to have to go this route, but it’s better than a total loss. If possible, take a few cuttings of the plant, root them, and hang on to the mother plant just in case you are able to save it. You may not be able to save it, but if you have a few clippings you will have an opportunity to keep that same plant going.
For small outbreaks, you may try dipping a q-tip or cotton balls in rubbing alcohol and then rubbing it on the outbreak areas of the plant. The stem. The bottom of the leaves. The area where the leaf meets the stem also known as the “leaf axil.” Be thorough. Be consistent.

Buying Guide
Certainly, not everyone is a gardening expert, however, that should not be a deterrent to keeping your yard clean and beautiful. Below is a precise guide that will help you in getting the right product for your garden. Read through and follow the guide judiciously.
How to choose a rotary mower for small gardens?
Power source
The power source of any mower you want to get is very important. Since we are dealing with a small space, the source of power will determine how effective and efficient you get your lawn cut perfectly. Therefore both Electric and Fuel mower would get the job done perfectly. But if you want to be eco-friendly, then the Electric mower is your best option.
Cutting width
The wider the cutting width of your mower the faster you get the job done. No one wants to spend the whole day cutting the lawn. Moreover, it is a small lawn we are dealing with right here. Therefore a 30cm width mower should get the job done efficiently.
The deck
The deck is simply the part that ensures how long you’d get to use your mower. That is its longevity. Lawn Mower can either have a steel deck, plastic deck, and composite deck. The steel will last longer than the plastic and composite deck but surely it is heavier and cost faster.
Drive types
Lawn Mower comes in different drive types and so you must decide which is best for you. They include,
Rear-wheel – Designed to fit uneven surface and edge cutting.
Front-wheel – These types are designed for more flexibility and maneuvering when mowing.
All Wheel – these are great for literally all lawn conditions.
Other features
Other features to look out for include;
Rear roller for stripe effect and design
Mulching plug for healthy growth of your lawn after mowing.
Flexible discharge of grass clippings etc.
Conclusion
Contrary to what’s being said, small lawns very much do need maintenance. And one great place to start is with the lawn. Getting your lawn perfectly mowed is like getting 80% of the job done already.
And so, since everyone is not an expert gardener, it can become quite difficult to choose the best rotary mower for your lawn. Hence, the purpose of this post.
All the mowers listed in this article are great and could be gotten on Amazon at affordable prices. Go through the buying guide once again and pick the mower that best suits your needs. And do note that the rotary mowers listed are mainly great for small lawns. Thank you for reading Best Lawn Mowers For Small Gardens.
a variegated Ocean Spider Plant, but there are many varieties of the spider plant and they are all easy to grow. They are happy in almost any area of the house, as long as it get’s an adequate amount of daylight. It doesn’t need direct sunlight, but it doesn’t want to live in a dark closet either. As long as it’s getting some light, it should be totally fine. Water it normally and it’s going to be happy for many years. Once it get’s big enough, it will start to sprout “plantlets” or baby spider plants! You can take these and plant them to make new spider plants. Just cut them off and place them in a glass of water so the root is sitting in the glass and the leaves are sitting outside. Put that glass in a window and within a few weeks, you will have roots! You can now plant it in soil and start the process over again. You can also try planting them in a nice pot and selling them. It could be a nice little side business. No matter what you do, you should have no problems keeping your spider plants happy and healthy for many years to come.
