🌿 10 Easy Indoor Plants + How to Help Them Thrive

Houseplants are more than just leafy eye candy—they boost mood, clean your air, and bring a little calm to the chaos. If you’ve already read my houseplant care challenge, you know I believe plants deserve a spot on your to-do list and your windowsill.  

Today, I’m keeping the momentum growing with a simple, visual chart that breaks down how to care for 10 of the most popular (and beginner-friendly!) indoor plants. Save it, print it, or tape it to your fridge for easy reference.

🌱 What’s inside the chart?

  • How often to water (spoiler: most don’t need daily attention)

  • The light and temperature they love

  • When to fertilize—and how not to overdo it

  • Bonus personality notes (some droop dramatically, some are practically immortal!)

🪴 Whether you’re a proud plant parent or trying not to kill your first aloe, this chart has you covered.

📌 Check it out below and share it with your favorite plant-loving friend.
(You can also pin it to your “Plantspiration” board for easy future access!)

We’re putting together a printable Houseplant Journal Page for those of you who want to track your watering, repotting, and propagation experiments. Because yes, your fiddle leaf fig deserves a spreadsheet.
