While house plants have always been popular among creative types and those who follow interior design trends, they've become more popular than ever before, primarily thanks to social media sites like Pinterest and Instagram, which show off just how much they can transform a room.

Not only do they improve any room, but they bring air purifying qualities to your home, and if taken care of, will last a long time.

There's a particular group of house plants that have been popular go-tos for homeowners, and they all share the same characteristics: they're low maintenance, are affordable, and look fantastic. We've gathered them all and separated them into two groups: plants that sit on the floor, and those that sit on a desk, counter, or bookshelf.
