Philodendrons

If you're looking for a fool-proof house plant, you couldn't do much better than a philodendron. These easy-growing foliage plants thrive with indirect light and very little maintenance. Philodendrons come in a variety of leaf coloring and size, some growing so large as to be called "tree" philodendrons and other vining types that are perfect for hanging baskets.
