Plants vary from difficult care to easy care.
I have many plants and some of them worry me every day because of the difficulty of taking care of them even after giving them everything to grow well.
I have seen many posts like this, while I disagree with some of the plants which have been claimed to be 'easy care', I've seen at the same time many plant parents complaining about those specific plants on Quora and other question-answer websites after saying that they have taken care of their best ability.
So today I'm going to share with you my top 5 low maintenance plants that I recommend having.
1. ZZ plant

oh well.. my fav. I have the hugest obsession with these plants. The reason these plants are low maintenance is due to the fact that they store water in their leaves causing us not to water them consistently and worry ourselves about them.
2. Aloes

A shame. I don't have one, but with research, the reason aloe is low maintenance is because it is originated in the Arabian peninsula (which is a dessert), which means it was originated to be having very little water, in fact, it is from the succulent type, storing water in its leaves.
3. Devil's Vine

Devil's vine, AKA money plant - well known for having the benefit of being a brilliant air purifier. They are the topmost low maintenance plants, known by their name 'devil's wine' due to their property of being able to survive in any condition, being almost impossible to kill, always staying green. Again, having the aspect of being able to survive in dark conditions, the devil's ivy plant mostly will prefer a bright home.
4. Cacti

Cacti are succulents so it's the same point. In the wild, (And generally) they have spiked chubby leaves to prevent thirsty animals from drinking the water stored in their leaves.
5. Swiss cheese plant

My most darling plant from the all above! I don't sincerely know why it's considered low maintenance, but I think it's true because mine is again my darling and the most un stubborn plant from all my 69 plants!
