Araucaria or the Norfolk Island pine – it stays healthy if given ample light and humidity. In low light, the lower branches may turn brown and fall off. If the air is too dry, it becomes a prime target for spider mites, a common houseplant pest. Indoors it grows up to 10 feet and is an ideal choice for Christmas decorations or a present.

Aloe vera comes next, since we mentioned showy plants. Aloe likes a lot of sunlight so it is a good choice to grow it on balcony and, as you might expect for a succulent, this indoor house plant prefers dry soil, so avoid frequent watering for the best result. Ideal for a pot with little white decorative stones for a beautiful contrast.
