The things with the easy-to-care plants... they do require your attention anyway. I do not understand why mostly succulents are recommended for a beginner. Those things are definitely not easy to care for, you have to watch it keeping its shape, having good on-top-only lighting, not to overwater, and many other things to consider when you have one. I had like 50 succulents in my collection and in some time I realized those take a whole lot more space than regular plants. The pots are small but those are so many and you still have to find space for them. Anyways, where was I...
To me caring for plants is easy. At least I don't dance around them as much and if one dies I don't blame myself. Sometimes plants just hate you haha.
Back to business: the easy-to-carry plants for beginners I have in my collection
Syngonium. My most-loved plants. A Syngonium Neon that I got when it was a baby now is a beautiful plant. I had to repot it three times over the last six months. My collection includes like 7 for now and they all are so different. My Albo Variegated Syngonium I have never shown here is one of my most favorite plants too. I didn't have any issues with any Syngonium I have had. No sudden leaf drop, no crispy tip, no nothing. Water it once a week or twice when it's too hot and you are a good plant mom.
Philodendron Micans and basically any other philodendron I've had. Those kinda tough to me as they are a bit of a slow-growers. When you bring one to your place do not be surprised that it might not give you new growths for months. But once it wakes up, it brings lots of new leaves. My Micans did not want to grow for solid six months then winter came and boom, it has lots of new growths. And I did notice it with any other philodendron I have had.
Stromanthe. That probably sounds weird. I've had issues with a stromanthe. In fact, I've killed one and didn't know how did that happen. But what those plants don't like is when you forget to water them. The leaves get brown in no time and that is not good. Mine occasionally take a shower. The leaves tips still get crispy but I don't care much for as long as my plant is happy and gives me new leaves.
Sansevieria or snake plant. Many varieties. A whole bunch of different plants and all are easy to care for. The thing I noticed with my snake plant is the watering schedule. While the internet says you have to water those once a few weeks I noticed that mine do well when I water them about once a week. Keep in mind, the plant that survives in a low-light condition does not mean it can do in a no-light room. In fact, mine does thriving when receiving lots of sunlight. Keep an eye on your snake plant, if it does not grow then maybe it does not have enough light?
Peace Lily. I know I know that sounds predictable but hear me out. Those are cool. Those have lots of varieties. The variegated Peace Lily is love! There are specifies with small and large leaves and this is one of a few plants that not only have amazing leaves but also when they bloom the blooming is beautiful. I was very skeptical about those at first but then I saw those with large leaves and boom, now I have 6. They can survive in low-light conditions (read not a no-light situation) and still be grateful to you. The only thing to keep in mind is to not forget to water these. A Peace Lily is definitely a drama-queen. Do not let her drop her leaves, this is definitely a bad sign.
Other than not to forget watering, a Peace Lily is an amazing plant to get if you are a beginner.
All plants are easy to carry for (except for a calathea lmao) if you learn to listen to them. If you check them a bit more often than never. You know what I mean right?
