Peperomias (especially the baby rubber plant variety)! I have found them to be hardy and they can last longer between watering- so if you forget occasionally it’s not a huge deal. They are a little more sensitive to overwatering so if that is your tendency they might not be the best- but overall I love mine and it’s a breeze!

I recommend pothos. It was my first plant and is still thriving!

Ferns do great in shade and part sun. They do need watering regularly, but it’s not too hard to give them what they need! They like humid, moist, and shady areas!
