I need to pep up our living space and was thinking plants would be a great way to do so. Any recommendations? We're up at 3000' or so so it never gets very hot at all. Plus due to the orientation of the house, the sun (I hear that it does exist up here but I'm beginning to have doubts) doesn't come in until the late afternoon. So basically I'm thinking shade-friendly plants would be the way to go. Also low-maintenance and longevity are preferred. I'm good at the watering part but just don't want to have to do a lot of feeding and such. I'd like some kind of palm but am very open to ideas. What works for you?
