Check Out These 10 Low Maintenance Houseplants

DreamStream has compiled a list of no-fuss Houseplants you can grow and add life and colour to your home.

1.Pothos

This indoor plant has an air-purifying quality that can absorb and strip toxins like formaldehyde from materials at home. It has trailing stems and works well in a hanging basket or as a climbing plant with some training onto whatever object you like that will support it.

It can produce stems that trail eight feet or longer, so just cut them back when they get too long and your plant will continue to look full and healthy. It can thrive in an array of lighting conditions, but low light may diminish the leaves' variegation. Allow soil to dry somewhat between watering. Pothos does well in an array of normal room temperatures.

2.Aloe

This succulent with long pointed leaves has medicinal properties and can grow three feet high for big impact indoors. Smaller varieties like the popular aloe vera, work great in small, sunny indoor spaces.

Aloe likes room temperatures around 70 degrees and a lot of sunlight. As you might expect for a succulent, this indoor house plant prefers dry soil, so avoid frequent watering for the best result.

3.Spider Plant

These unusual-looking indoor plants add visual interest to a room, and come in a number of varieties, and work well as hanging plants.

They do well with evenly moist soil and bright or medium lighting conditions. Room temperatures of 60 to 75 degrees keep them thriving.

4.English Ivy

English Ivy likes moist soil and cooler room temperature conditions, ranging from the mid-50s to about 70.

5.Jade Plant

It does not require a lot of water, so keep soil somewhat dry. It prefers bright light and ordinary room temperatures.

6.Rubber Tree

This plant grows into an eight-foot-tall tree for a major pop of greenery in a room. If you prefer a smaller plant, just make your rubber tree into a shrub shape by pruning any long stems. The dark green leaves have an attractive shine to them.
