| The
cast iron plant is one of the easiest
to care for plants and makes a great
plant for beginners. This plant is
very tolerant of a wide range of conditions.
Originating from Asia, it has upright
green leaves. This plant has been
popular since the Victorian time period,
and was one of the first major houseplants
to be cultivated. There are several
different hybrids that exist, but
unfortunately many of them are not
widely available. |
