I need to be busy so what plants are for me?

If you like caring for them every day, mosses and micro orchids are fun. You can put them in a cloche or small terrarium to keep humidity up, but they get watered daily or every other day. Bonsai can also be very hands-on if you get a fast growing species

I so wish that I had a space for that🥺

You probably do. I've been doing mosses in little tea-light candle holders as planters. I have an unusually pretty shot glass that can hold one micro orchid, and you can do bonsai outdoors if you pick locally hardy species (or try the high-maintenance mame style of super tiny bonsai). For larger things, I'm doing like 1-2 foot tall bonsai and a bit of driftwood with several mounted tiny orchids

Philodendrons are my heart. They are so forgiving and mostly fast growing. They tell you what they need very easily. I say get a philodendron. Depending on what moves you there are so many different kinds to choose from. 💚💚
