These are the perfect plants for indoor gardeners with brown thumbs.
Aloe
Aloe (Aloe vera) is best known for its plump leaves that can provide a soothing gel for cuts and burns. Allow the plant's soil to dry completely in between waterings; depending on the humidity of your home, that may mean watering as little as every two to three weeks. You can also use the pulp for your health and beauty regimen!
