I am on a good roll with my indoor plants! What I've found that works is moving them until they're happy. I used to buy a plant for a specific window or area in the house and it would die. I think plants are fickle. If it doesn't look happy I move it to a sunnier or shadier spot and watch it, eventually I find a spot that works. I have about 20 plants right now that are all thriving!

Wow, really! I just gave up buying them because it was a death sentence for them but I might try again. What do you think are the most hardy and what conditions do they like?
