Hello. I am excited to be new in this forum. I am manager of a couple small hotels in Prague. Does anyone know good indoor plants that will warm up a room that require little expert knowledge? I love the way a plant can change a room but would appreciate some specific suggestions as to which plants. Thanks for contributing to future guests' enjoyment.
HERE is a page that has some good suggestions. If I had to suggest 2 plants it would be the Peace Lilly (Spathiphyllum wallisii) and the Corn Plant (Dracaena fragrans). VERY easy plants. That said, only time will tell. One plant may really like a location in a room while another will grow poorly and look ugly in the same spot. M.

Trade name: Cast Iron Plant It does very well in low light conditions and as long as proper soil and water conditions are met, they are very hardy. They will usually grow indoors in places and under conditions where most other plants will not. You often see them in quite a few commercial buildings. You know, they are the plants that folks dump their old coffee, tea, and other beverages in as they are walking through the building.
Cycas revoluta (also known as "sago palm") and Zamia furfuracea (also known as "cardboard palm") make good indoor specimen plants. They are tough, as well as very exotic looking. These species have survived since the age of the dinosaurs and are very hardy. They have stiff, resilient leaves and will withstand the dry atmosphere found indoors, as well as curious hands of many guests.
