    aloe is cool...great for burns and an excellent primer for the digestive system, also releases oxygen at night. its painfully easy though and very low maintainence.. itll tolerate low light and a buncha other shit, but it appreciates a lotta light too. you can usually find a very scraggaly terrible looking one to save easily at kmart for a couple bucks, maybe cheaper if you ask for a discount. and you could always try moving the plant outside or in a window for at least part of the day too so it gets a bit more light.

    pothos and peace lilies are cool too though, and all great for cleaning indoor air pollution, which is often worse than outdoor...

    Yes jades are easy to grow and you can put them out in the summer.

    Lemon trees are fairly easy as well, I just plant the seeds in a pot when I'm done with a lemon, I give most the plants out, but I still have my very first one from like 4 or 5 years ago.

    I also have a clone of it.
