Dracaena braunii (sanderiana)(lucky bamboo) is a real winner for me. I have the variegated kind. I got a little 3 or 4 inch pot about ten years ago, gave it to son for his college loft apt. That came back to me, and I have since grown it on, made cuttings, shared, and up potted (they eventually send out new stems from the base) to two ten inch pots of multiple stems up to 4 feet tall. It stays upright and narrow, not hogging floor space. Sometimes they've summered on my deck, for winter of course they must be inside. They've hung out in low light a few months and not cared. They've never had the mites, mealybugs, or aphids I deal with on other plants in my home or workplace. Just super 'easy' and to me, pretty.
Plant it and they will come.
