cacti are quite fun to grow, but it's years since I did it. Some more easy than others I guess

Jungle cacti (epiphylums) were easy I think. I have one more than 20 years old, but it isn't a special one. Same coloured flowers as a christmas cactus, only much bigger

In the seventies we all grew coleus as indoor plants, they take a bit of looking after but are very easy to start, and well colourful.

Bugloss and Small thanks!  :)
Anyone else have any suggestions?

I know this is in Non-edible, so maybe you want flowers, but some edibles grow well indoors. For free plants, I've tried lemon pips, they grow fine but not sure if you'd actually get lemons.
Chilli peppers grow really well, as does basil. Both are very easy to germinate and don't seem to have any problems.

Jennym I'm asking on behalf of someone who'll be happy to try anything easy! Thanks for your suggestions which I'll pass on to her.  :)

edit - oops sorry, didn't read the original subject properly 'Indoor plants from seed'


Flighty

Detailista that's okay, taking cuttings is certainly worth considering!  :)

Tee Gee thanks!
