Aloe vera is also a heat resistant plant. You are not likely to suffer from the heat radiated by your radiator. The fleshy leaves of aloe vera are waterlogged and therefore this plant requires little watering. Therefore, water your aloe vera only once a week,   even in hot weather.   Dilute a little liquid fertilizer in the irrigation water every two months. In winter, stop all fertilizers and water only once a month.

2. Chlorophytum or spider plant

Chlorophytum is a perennial plant with evergreen and decorative foliage. This plant native to South Africa is known for being   very robust and undemanding. Thanks to its bulbs  , chlorophytum can withstand long periods of drought. Even if its leaves wither, a simple watering is enough   to restore vitality to the plant.

3. Sansevieria: easy care plant

Sansevieria or mother-in-law’s tongue has the advantage of adapting to any interior. This succulent plant stores water and   therefore resists droughts of several months.  On the other hand, excessive watering can harm it. Hence the interest of placing a layer of clay balls at the bottom of the pot. This will promote drainage, to   prevent root rot.   Also remember to remove any standing water in the saucer or saucepan. Keep in mind that you can propagate your sansevieria from a single leaf.

4. Haworthia, a perennial succulent

Haworthia are perennial plants, similar to aloes. These succulents are undemanding   and easy to grow indoors.   They can live with little water and would not be at risk of dying if you forget to water them. In summer, you can water your haworthia only every 2 to 3 weeks, especially when the soil is very dry.

Like all succulents,   it only requires moderate watering.   It also tolerates drought better than abundant watering and, for good reason, its fleshy tissues store water. Crassula needs   a semi-shaded location to grow well.   Also remember to mix the potting soil with a little sand and add a layer of drainage. Please note that the jade tree could, according to Feng Shui, attract luck and money in the house.
