Many people keep several kinds of flowering plants in the living room; they not only purify the indoor air but also make the living room livelier. But sometimes people forget to water the plants, leaving them lifeless or even killing them outright. That may be because you chose the wrong varieties. So here are some plants that need no special care and can grow well without water for a long time.

Peace Lily tree (Cinnamomum kotoense)

The peace lily tree likes to grow in a warm, humid environment and is fairly drought-tolerant; too much water easily turns its leaves yellow. It likes ample light but is also fairly shade-tolerant, and in summer it needs a little shading. The peace lily tree has a graceful shape, with rather thick, emerald-green leaves, and it symbolizes health and peace, so many people keep a pot of it in the living room.

Rubber tree (Ficus elastica)

The rubber tree is highly adaptable and suited to a warm, humid environment; it is fairly drought-tolerant and basically needs watering only once every half month, otherwise too much water will kill it outright. It likes ample light, otherwise it grows slowly. The rubber tree has a compact shape, with broad, thick leaves in a deep green color, and has high ornamental value.

Brazilian wood (Dracaena fragrans)

Brazilian wood is highly adaptable and suited to a high-temperature, high-humidity environment; it likes ample light but is also fairly shade-tolerant and fairly drought-tolerant, and can go a long time without watering, as long as each watering soaks it thoroughly. Brazilian wood has a graceful shape, with slender, emerald-green, glossy leaves; growing it in the living room gives a sense of elegance.

Money tree (Zamioculcas zamiifolia)

The money tree is fairly simple to care for and suited to a warm, humid environment; it can go a long time without watering, otherwise too much water easily causes root rot, but it needs some light spraying with clean water to raise the air humidity. The money tree is a typical foliage plant, its leaves very similar to ancient copper coins, in an emerald-green color and full of gloss, and it also symbolizes rolling in wealth, so placing a pot of it in the living room is also a good choice.
