We have quite a few! I love house plants. I think they're important and helps clean the air we breathe. 
I have to keep them inaccessible from a baby & dog tho.

I wish we could have plants but our cat eats them!
-
We used to have a hanging fern named Henry. He died a slow, neglected death after we brought E home
-
I have one. I'm not good at keeping plants.
Wait, I have 2 succulents. Do those count?
-
We've got like 7 or so throughout the house. Miraculously, they haven't died yet.
-
None. I can't keep them alive..
-
nice plants! i'd love to have some around the house, but i am horrible at keeping them alive. =( we had a money tree for a year that slowly died (which is bad luck isnt it?)
we have several "fake" plants though for decoration
-
I do not have a single plant in my house...I can never keep them alive and I never really liked them that much, so no plants for me!
-
We have about half a dozen. They're all low maintenance plants...otherwise I would have killed them by now. I like that they improve air quality
-
No.. they're so high maintenance.
Everything I've ever owned has died on me 
-
No, I work really hard to keep my outside garden alive and put all my effort there.
-
haha plant killers, succulents are virtually un-killable as are cactus. But I do know someone who killed a cactus..
-
Yes, I have one. I do not know what type of house plant it is but I love it. It is so low maintenance and I water it about once in two weeks. I do know that it is not a succulent plant.
-
We have one orchid. It is finally coming back in bloom after months of dormancy. I'm apparently a terrible plant owner!
-
Yes, though as I'm not great at maintaining them, I've whittled them down to just 3. A beautiful Amaryllis in the kitchen, a Jade plant, also in the kitchen and a huge palm type plant in the living room (I don't know the name) that I inherited from my parents at some point... it's taller and older than me!
-
I used to but I killed it. My MIL used to come over and try to save it, but...sadly it died.
Funny thing, is DH bought it for me when we started dating - it was our "Love Fern" and when it died, he made a big show (jokingly) about how I let our love fern die! (how to lose a guy, anyone?)
-
@Mrs. Jacks: Oh no, that's a good thing! They don't bloom very often...a lot of them bloom once a year! And this is the time for a lot of them. It sounds like yours is a happy orchid!
I have a couple of indoor citrus trees in my sunroom and a bunch of orchids scattered throughout the house.
-
Nope. I kill everything. Haha.
-
No I can't keep inside plants alive for anything! But we have a ton to take care of outside...and they're living
-
I have 10 in the house. I love how it makes the rooms seem more cosy. I wish I was better at watering them though. They would look so much better.
-
We have 5 or 6. I've tried them all and have a handful I cannot kill, so those are the ones we keep around. I almost never water them, so I think my maid must be when she comes every other week.
@Mrs. Jacks: I think this is normal. My grandmother bought us one (in bloom) for my son's birth a year ago, and it's just about to bloom again.
For anyone in the market for a plant you absolutely cannot kill, I recommend the ZZ plant. I bought mine at Lowe's, stuck it in a dark corner, then forgot about it for like 2 months, and it didn't die.
-
We received a few after my MIL passed a year and a half ago. I felt a lot of pressure to keep them alive! As of now, I gave one to my mom and we have one more still thriving. Thankfully you don't need to water it much. I did not inherit my mom's green thumb but would like to try to have a garden some day
-
Nope, I can't keep plants alive. Also, my tabby cat will eat them and then throw up.
-
Not at the moment, but when we move, yes. I plan to plant them in those moisture rocks, not soil, I heard that helps people with black thumbs keep them alive longer.
-
unfortunately.
-
My friend sent me an indoor tulip plant yesterday! I hope I don't kill it!
-
Man, I wish we did. My cats eat them, so we don't have anything.
-
we have fake ones because our cats eats real ones & throws up =(
-
No, I have a serious black thumb.
-
We have quite a few European gardens that we got when my dad passed. Those are still going. Along with a few other plants.
-
No cause I always kill them. But I want to get some now since we have so much light in the house.
-
No, I always forget to take care of them
-
We have bamboo but somehow it keeps dying (I thought it wasn't suppose to die?!)
-
I had lofty dreams of having lots of houseplants, and found a metal plant stand to hold them. They are all dead now
I am a bad plant owner.I do fine with a garden, but something about a plant being indoors makes me neglect it until it dies.
-
@spaniellove: shows you what I know!
-
We have seedlings right now to put outside once they get bigger. We did have houseplants but LO likes the dirt too much and I don't have a set up to put them out of her reach. I might try to figure that out this summer, even if I keep them on the table though she ends up climbing up and pulling them down.
-
We have just two plants---an ivy and a curry plant. In my MS phase, I told my hubby that either the curry plant or I had to go (the smell was just too much for me), so he stripped it of all its leaves and hid the leaves far, far away from my nose.
But it's grown back now--so we didn't kill it! Annnnnd I'm back to not being able to smell it.
-
Yes, that my MIL keeps bringing me because SHE likes them. I wish I didn't have any.
-
@Mrs. Jacks: Nope, that's normal for them!
-
No, I'd like to say they all die because we have such little natural light in the house... but I really just don't have a knack for growing things. I tried to grow an herb garden but I just grew mold
