Plant People - help needed

No one[?]

oh well worth a try

?

The only plant I ever managed to keep alive was a Christmas Cactus, so I'm not really in a position to give great advice.
What was your old username?

Cheese plants are pretty easy to look after - is that the sort of thing you mean? I take it that mean you mean "not poisonous" when you say child/cat friendly? I would imagine they'll both knock it over a few times when you first get it.

Christmas cacti aren't prickly ones, they are succulents (fleshy leaves). They might need a bit more light than you have though?

You could get a peace lily, they like it shady and aren't poisonous. Mine has had the leaves pulled about a bit by my daughter but is still fine.

Oooo i like the look of the peace lily

lily is my fave flower but i was told that they are poisonous for cats

?

Lillies are poisonous to cats.

Sorry to hijack ?
What about living rooms that gat's lots of sun (and quite warm?). Does'nt have to be cat or child friendly.

Orchids are very easy to look after (Moth orchids, phaeleonopsis orchids in particular)

They just like a warm room, out of direct sun (but fairly bright) and watering once a week.

Mine flower for months at a time!
