Here are three indoor plants that will thrive in low light, dry air and forgive you when you forget to water.

.

Cast Iron plant (Aspidistra elatior). Never has there been a houseplant with a more appropriate common name. In the south, this houseplant is also called the barber shop plant because it seems to be the indoor mascot of every barber shop.

.

.

Inexpensive, easy to find, even at big box stores, it is time we return to the splendor of the Victorian age when every parlor proudly displayed a potted plant most often that would be the hard-to-kill Aspidistra.

.

Heres a growing tip: For maximum leaf color, do not overfeed this houseplant, and to keep the leaves from burning keep it away from bright, sunny windows unless you have a barber shop with an awning out front.

.

Dracaena

.

This is a large family of survivors that all make great indoor plants. The Hawaiian Ti plant is a dracaena as is the highly variegated dumb cane. (Note to pet owners: Dumb cane earned its name because chewing on the stems or leaves will cause numbness of the mouth.)

.

You can enjoy the long, narrow leaves of a potted dracaena in a dark corner, warm office or cool sunroom.
