I don't have any right now but used to enjoy growing them as long as I didn't kill them.  I even killed a "snake plant" (a.k.a. "mother-in-law's tongue") one time.  Now that's bad because it's a succulent (retains water) and requires very little care.  The easiest to grow is the philodendron, but it does require water!

My favorite plant is a silk plant, you don't have to water it, you don't have to give it the right amount of sun... it's perfect for my home.  :heart:

I had a plant once that I got for my birthday, a plant with white blooms [ not sure of the name]. It grew very fast and I had to put it in a new pot it twice. Finally, I gave it to a co worker who had a big house with a living room.  I like philodendron type plants.

I love having lots of different plants in my home, especially when fall hits and all my outside gardening goes with the weather. I have orchids, and other flowering ones, along with about 20 other types, and I honestly don't know what I would do IF I didn't have my fingers in dirt all year round. It is the best 'therapy' I know of, always calms my mind, and I have always said I would love to own a greenhouse/nursery when I retire. I guess I have the proverbial 'green thumb' - friends and family consult me and also give me their half-dead plants so I can bring them back to life. ;)

Love them all.  I am not good with plants that flower or have a velveet feel to them.  I have this one type of tree, don't know what it is.  I bought it and all the tag said was 5 in foilage.  I have had it about 6 or 7 years.  It now about 5 ft tall and about that wide do to the many branches that just keep coming.  It's awesome.

Plants are nice. I don't like to have a whole bunch indoors or outdoors though. I don't have any specifics, I just like what looks nice and won't be a huge hassle. Elephant ears are cool and Venus Flytraps.  :thumbsup:

I really like plants and I was luck enough to have some space for them this year now that I live in a house. I mostly like planting for food but there are some I like for their smell and flowers: lilac bush, jasmine, wisteria, honeysuckle are among my favorites.

i like to keep plants. My favorites are Christmas cactus and any type of succulent plant. They require very little care and I can leave them outside for most of the year.

Yes, I love all plants but my favorites are...roses, peonies, sunflowers and wild flowers (there are some others, but I can't think of their names at the moment)

I love all kinds of plants that don't make my eyes itchy and watery, my nose stuffy and sneeze.

I think cactuses are cool. I had one from the 4th grade until not to long ago. That's 1988 till 2010, so quite awhile. It grew all the way up to the ceiling. I had one friend who dug some out when he was in the desert awhile back and then he planted them when he go home and they grew really big thorns. :thumbsup:

I'm somewhat impartial to plants. But I miss them when they aren't around. The world is a lot colder without them. I like irises in particular though.
