Greenery can look great in your living space and make your apartment feel more “homey”. However, keeping plants alive can be harder than it looks. If you lack a green thumb, here is a quick look at three plants that do not require much water to stay alive.

Succulents: succulents are beautiful plants that work great as centerpieces on a side table. The plant also requires water about once a week (which is great for those of us with forgetful minds).

ZZ plant: the ZZ plants goes great with any décor as its bold green leaves will add a pop of color into your living space. The plant prefers to be left alone and will thrive will little water or care.

Ponytail palm: this Mexican plan stores water and makes it last for a long time. You probably need to water the palm less than once per week.
