Not everyone is blessed with excellent plant growing abilities. Some of us kill anything green in a pot that crosses our watering can. If you fit that mold, don’t worry, there’s hope. You can be a plant person! There are some varieties out there that are strong enough to fend for themselves when you forget about them, or think about them too much. You just have to know which ones can stand your non-green thumb. These eight easy-to-grow plants will freshen up your home and (most likely) won’t die on you.

Yes, the sunburn saver is an easy-to-grow plant! Aloe is a cool add to a desk, a side table, or even your bathroom vanity. It just needs lots of sun and water every two to three weeks.

Pothos, $18

This vining plant can grow in just about any room in your house. It can survive your forgetful watering habits, and thrives in any lighting situation. Just make sure when you do water, you soak it through and let it drain. Pothos can’t handle soggy roots.

Snake Plant, $28

This modern looking plant likes lots of sun, but will be okay in a low light situation too. Give it a good drink when the top inch or two of soil is dry and watch ‘er grow!

Philodendron, $13

Jade Plant, $12.50

Lost of sun and minimal water is the name of the game with this little plant. Give it a drink when the soil dries out, set it out to sunbathe, and you’ll help this guy grow pretty, magenta-tinged leaves.

Echeveria, $9
