Actually, it's not that hard at all! Pick a few "flowering workhorses," and with just a little care, you can see fresh flower buds all year round. Anthurium: Its flowers are especially interesting, standing among the leaves like little candles, bright red and very eye-catching, and one flower can bloom for two months; once one fades, another pops up. The key is that it isn't picky about its environment; just place it in a spot with diffused light in the living room, and don't let it get too much sun, or the leaves will scorch. Watering is simple too; when you touch the surface of the potting soil and it's dry, water it, and occasionally spray a little water on the leaves, and it will grow vigorously. I used to be lazy and didn't water it for half a month; the leaves got a bit wilted, but after watering, it perked up the next day. It's really tough and easy to care for.
