Hi folks I tip my hat to you.

I don't have the best green thumb and the lighting I have is limited. I have an East window, but I it seems more like a North window for a good part of the year.

I do have a patio, but I prefer not to load it full of houseplants, so that's not really an option (Although, my 'Florida Beauty,' which is outside on the patio, has grown considerably since I purchased it earlier this year...).

I'm looking for houseplants that can take low-light for a good part of the year (mainly Spring, but it does go into the Summer; I get a good bit of winter sun apparently).

I do have a small windowsill, but it's not that wide at all, so I'm not sure it'd be an option for a plant depending on the size.

I need something that doesn't need humidity, can afford to dry out if I forget to water, and that can afford to stay "too wet" if I goof up. The way I'm starting to make this plant sound, it sounds like I need to invest in a silk plant. Hilarious!

I already have a light green cultivar of 'Arrowhead Vine' and just purchased a second one that has pink veining in the leaves. I also have a 'Bichetii Grass' Spider plant.

Will these three plants do well with my stated conditions? What other plants do you recommend?
