Default What are some good houseplant to buy?

I am looking for some new houseplants that are either cool, pretty, rare. or exotic.

I now have: caladiums, some cacti, aloe vera, venus fly trap, shamrock, mother-in-laws tongue, and donkey tail.

Do you know of any other plants that do well inside all year round?

If you won't something with a bit of height then get a Chinese lucky plant. When it gets to tall all you do is cut the top off and replant it.

Another nice indoor plant is Peace Lily.

If you like to add some colour then get a Cordyline fruticosa

one more easy care indoor plant is a Philodendron called 'Xanadu'
