Do you have any nice house plants? I keep buying plants, but I over/ under water them and they die. Please give me the name of a low maintenance, but attractive looking plant, so I can buy one. It doesn't have to have flowers, but I don't really want a cactus. My friend suggested an aloe, but I'd like a few other ideas before I commit. FANKS! :D |

is such a creepy looking plant, I like it. Just make sure its legal where you live and trust me, don't eat it :P |

haha! OK, firstly this looks too expensive for me to afford in the first place. Secondly, it looks like it requires a lot of maintenance, so it would die within a few days of being in my room. Thirdly, it reminds me of the ghost orchid in the film Adaptation. It's a great film, I would thoroughly, thoroughly reccomend it. They take the flower in powder form as a drug too, as I imagine you are implying one does with that flower you are talking about. :) Also, don't worry- I don't tend to eat flowers, hehehe. :D |

i've got a rose of jericho in my room, its a middle eastern plant that does not need water, you give some to it when you want and if you feel in a patient mood you can watch it slowly open and show its hearth to you. it does look like a heart |

whatever plant you choose, i'd be careful. i learned recently that sometimes plants explode. |

venus fly traps are pretty cool, i remember having one when i was a kid. they can eat frogs and everything!! |

If you over feed a venus flytrap, does that kill it? I think someone told me that once. Also, most small and medium sized cacti make good house plants. In sunlit areas especially. Yucca was a good suggestion. I think ferns need a lot of watering, but filling a covered porch or sunroom with them would make things pretty interesting. |

filling a covered porch or sunroom with them would make things pretty interesting. I do have a conservatory, so that might be a good place for a plant, yeah. Good suggestion! And... how did you know I had a conservatory? *looks round suspiciously* |

And when allowed to dry, it sinks back into a long deep sleep, only to be awakened again when moistened. Known to keep pests at bay, it also draws moisture, odours and smoke from the air to keep the room fresh. Sounds pretty awesome! I might try to get my hands on one o' these. :) |

didn't know all those qualities, good. all i know is that it asks really little attention, maybe too little if you're looking for smth that occupies your time. if you clean your room/house once in a week/+ for example, giving some water to its roots might be a little (more) incentive to your day. |

I eat flowers, I eat lots of stuff I find outside... You have to nibble from your surrounding area to fully understand the energy around you. |

haha! Reading that made me laugh, but I also agree with it a little. I am not going to eat flowers, thereby destroying their , though. :) But I am not someone who believes they can hear grass screaming when it is cut. hehe. |

No, I ain't looking for something that occupies time, so that's not a problem. I like things that add incentive to my day :) Give me a reason to get up in the morning. haven't got a girlfriend, so I can have a Rose of jericho to enrich my life instead, lol. |
