Top 5 Hardest Houseplants to Kill
You're probably here because you're a plant killer. Spoiler alert: this is not a blog post about keeping your plants alive. Rather, think of it as your guide to uncovering your perfect match — the plant that will stay strong despite your inevitable neglect.
Each of these plants have been tried and tested by yours truly, a former plant killer. To be absolutely honest, I keep these out of direct sunlight, water them whenever I think about it (which isn't often) and everything seems to be a-ok.
So without further ado, here is a list of the top 5 hardest houseplants to kill.
1. Snake Plant
Water: Every 2-6 weeks
Sunlight: Indirect
2. Zebra Cactus
Water: Every 2-4 weeks

4. Cast Iron Plant
Water: Every 2-3 weeks

5. Chinese Evergreen
Water: Every 2-3 weeks
Light: Low or indirect sunlight
And that's a wrap on my top picks for low-maintenance houseplants! Whether you start with just one or get the whole lot, I have faith you'll find it hard to kill any one of these choices.
Disclaimer: No plants were harmed in the making of this blog post! However, if you read through these options and still feel unconvinced, our "Home is Where I Kill My Plants" art print might be for you. We like to think of it as the world's most honest participation trophy.
Happy planting!
