House plants?

9 years ago

I'm looking for a Cast Iron plant, and haven't been able to find one. Anyone know a good source for house plants? I'm in Ellis county.

Or, do you have any suggestions for non-toxic plants that the cats just won't be interested in?

The cats have chewed/destroyed most of the plants I've tried to have indoors, so this is my last try. I potted up a fabulous ponytail palm into an even more fabulous vintage McCoy planter. Set in on a table in the hall, and it was smashed to pieces within the hour.

I wish I knew the name of the plant I have most enjoyed as a house plant. It's been so easy and I just love its form. I may post a picture of it if I find the time to hopefully discover its name. In the meantime I googled for a list of houseplants that are considered non-toxic to cats if you want to check out the link belowt.

Here is a link that might be useful: House plants that are non-toxic to cats
