The Fiddle Leaf Fig is an extremely popular houseplant that thrives in warm and humid environments with lots of light. This plant is slightly harder to take care of as compared to the other plants on this list because it needs to be placed under direct sunlight and watered quite frequently.
Although some of these plants are sturdy and robust, do your research before purchasing any and make sure you have time to care for it! Find a spot in your home that allows the plants to get sunlight and watch out for pests that may gather around the plant. If all else fails, you can always get a fake one!
