Five House Plants For Beginners
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Spider Plant
Spider plants work great in hanging baskets making them easy to hang in any room of your house. They have variegated green with white striped leaves and survive best in bright, indirect light.
The "babies" of the plant shoot out on long stems looking like mini spiders. Babies can be easily trimmed off and potted into pots of their own.
Spider plants are one of the top 10 on NASA's list of clean air houseplants. They remove many toxic chemicals from the air.

It gets its name due to the white flowers that look like mini white flags sticking up above the foliage.
Peace Lily is another plant on NASA's list of top 10 air cleaning plants.

Megabite Tomatoes
Enjoy delicious tomatoes all winter long! The 4 to 6 oz fruits are great for BLT sandwiches and salads.
Care:
Place plants a couple of feet back from a sunny window. Avoid placing up against the window as drafts can cause damage to the plant. Keep the soil moist, but avoid over watering.
