Pothos
In 2018, a pothos cutting found its way into my life and sparked an everlasting love for indoor plants!. It is one of the easiest indoor plants to grow. It will do great in almost any light condition. Pothos also love to be a bit on the dryer side, so you won't feel bad if you forget every now and then. I love how this plant vines. It can make for some cool effects to drape the vines across walls or door frames and looks killer in a macrame plant hanger.

Spider Plants have long leaves and produce spider plant babies on long trailing stems. This plant is great for beginners. It is easy to grow, tolerant of neglect, and can thrive in nearly any type of condition. It loves medium to bright light and prefers to be watered regularly.
