Chinese Money Plant

The Pilea Peperomioidesis a popular houseplant known as the Chinese money plant. And while we'd love to tell you that this easy houseplant grows $20 bills out of its leaves, that's not the case. However, there's no denying that the coin-shaped leaves are pretty impressive. It's also very easy to care for and requires watering once a week, but you should also spritz it with water every now and then to maintain the high humidity that it loves.

You should also pop this houseplant somewhere where it can get sunlight, but not all day. A windowsill that gets afternoon shade would be an ideal location for this particular plant.

Blue Moon Peace Lily

Peace lilies look luscious and robust, and that makes them a brilliant option for those who want to keep their plant maintenance to a minimum. And while they like being in the sunlight, it's important to keep them well-watered during this time in the sun. In the summer, you might even want to mist the leaves to maintain the high humidity that they like. But aside from that, you only have to water once a week.

If you keep your blue moon peace lily as healthy as possible, you also have the added bonus of this houseplant purifying the air in your home. So, you won't need to buy an air purifier!

Flamingo Flower

Most of the easy houseplants on this list are green and luscious, which makes the flamingo flower such a popular choice for those who want to add some color to their home. Yes, this plant looks the part - but you'll be happy to know that it doesn't require too much hard work. If you can, try and water it every three days, but it's not the end of the world if you don't do that.

You should be ok to water it just once a week, but keep your eyes peeled for yellowing leaves. If you spot any signs of yellow leaves, you're watering the plant too much.

Lady Palm

Palm trees are the perfect option for those who want a big houseplant without the big list of plant maintenance that can often go with it. This is also the case for the lady palm, which offers thick leaves that will make a real statement in your home and very few requirements. To see this palm grow to a huge size, you just need to make sure that you keep it in indirect sunlight.

During the summer months, you should also water it when you notice the top inch of soil seems dry. During the winter months, however, you can reduce that to the top two inches.

Air Plant

As you can probably tell by the name, the air plant only needs air to grow. This means that you don't have to pot them soil, and you can quite literally hang them from your ceiling if you want to. This is great for those who don't have a lot of space in their home, but also great for those who don't want plants with a lot of maintenance. In fact, all you have to do is soak an air plant in water every 10 days.

You should do this for around 2-3 hours at a time, and then you can put them back in their home. In an ideal world, this home offers bright but indirect sunlight.
