   OKAY plant people. FACT:

   to say a plant is "beginner friendly" or "easy" tells me nothing. NOTHING.

   the assumption here is that a newbie would FORGET to water it, so plants for noobs would be succulent, pony tail, sword plants, devils ivy etc.

   contrary! newbies might be a bit TOO aware of the new life form in their midst & drown anything short of aquatic species.

   ...and old hands like myself can get a bit too chill, a glance across the room at a wee green thing, thinking "nah it'll be fine"

     @benteh "beginner friendly" should ideally mean "is ok with very little water and a ton of water, lots of sun and no sun, and never needs any fertilizer".
