- antisthenes 4y agoGet an easier houseplant to take care of. I have a peace lily and despite my best efforts to kill it through neglect, it is still here almost 4 years later, kicking and thriving. It survived being not watered for over a month, overwatered, cut in half [1] and being left outside in near-freezing temperatures accidentally for a week or so. 1. Cutting it half is actually the preferred propagation method, so it wasn't an intentional way to harm the plant.
- LesZedCB 4y agoif they can easily care for 10, why would you assume they need easier plants? their point was they love them to death. in my house, i prefer to keep fish because they do well with lots of attention. i don't keep the plants because i would over-water (over-love) and then kill them :( this is all half-joke, half-serious.
- dymk 4y agoThe point is not that houseplants are hard to take care of. It's that neglecting them a little bit out of neccessity is actually good for them.
- wszfahwbwbaha 4y agoYou should say your point instead of tiptoeing around it
- pessimizer 4y agoIt's a very noisy tiptoe to mirror the headline of the OP almost exactly.

- antisthenes 4y agoThat sounds like a manager problem and not the houseplant problem.
- dymk 4y agoYes.
