Oh, I see! But your house is really lovely too since it’s filled with plants and flowers. I wish I could remember to water my plants daily, but I don’t and they usually die after a month or so. I have an anti green thumb lol. Maybe that’s why I really like drawing flowers in my art, they can’t die there :).
Most people don't realize you can get away with watering about once a week, which is actually all most house plants need, over watering can also kill them.
You should get succulents they love to dry out and be ignored, but they do need a sunny window.
Hmm yeah, I've bought cacti before because they're supposed to be durable but I managed to kill them, twice. I also tried with terrariums, they said it only needs to be misted every other week or so, but they also died somehow.
Eventually I will try again because plants are so lively and make the house feel alive, but it's quite demoralising to fail again and again ^^;.
