Hi there,
I haven't been part of the group very long but I will tell you that I think the types that work good for one person might not work work as well for you because of the area (zone) they live in. I've got a bunch of different varieties that I just got planted but I'm honestly not sure if they'll all make it. I sure am hopeful though.
I also wouldn't recommend putting them indoors because I think they will do much better outdoors. My mom had a container and she had been keeping it indoors and they started to look pail and like they're dying slowly. I've also learned while some seem to do okay in direct sunlight, most of mine can't tolerate the Oklahoma sun all day so I've compromised and put them in a location that gets sun in the am and shade in the afternoon. Now they seem to be doing much better. I'm sure some of the experienced group members will give you some advice once they read your post. I do think the semps regardless of variety, are easy for all beginners to take care of but just don't overwater them.
