As the proud mom of 17 healthy plants, I have to admit that keeping them alive takes work. You have to remember when to water them, watch for growth spurts, or dead stems to prune. I find the process of tending to them therapeutic, but it's a real commitment that many people aren't ready to make.

If you're tired of killing plant after plant, now's the time to look for an easy solution with faux greenery that will add some life to your space while not risking droopy leaves.Ahead you'll see some popsular styles you'll never have to water, feed, or move around your apartment for the best sunlight.
