Hunting for houseplants that suit a busy lifestyle? Our student friendly houseplant bundle might be just what you are looking for! Each bundle gives you three houseplants that are easy to care for: an Aloe Vera, a Snake Plant and a Crassula Ovata, which is better known as the Jade Plant. All three store water in their leaves, which means you can afford to miss a watering session or two.

Besides being able to cope with little attention, the Student Friendly Houseplant bundle gives you a good coverage of plants of different shapes and colours. The aloe forms a rosette of thick, spiky-edged leaves. The leaves on a snake plant grow tall and upright with pale bands. The jade plant slowly builds a woody stem with glossy, coin-shaped leaves, resembling a tiny tree. For placement, you can group them together on a sunny sill or desk or spread them around in a bedroom. Plus, they make a handy gift for anyone moving out. Browse more easy indoor plants.

  • The three plants in the bundle, Aloe Vera, Snake Plant and Jade Plant, are all easy to care for and can cope with limited attention
  • All three plants have low water needs and are a great place to start for someone who is new to houseplants
  • The plants have mixed shapes: a rosette, tall upright leaves and a mini tree
  • Aloe vera and jade plants prefer bright light, while the snake plant can tolerate lower light levels, making it suitable for shadier spots with natural daylight.
  • The bundle contains plants in 9cm and 12cm pots for a nice mix of sizes

Watering Allow the compost to dry well between waterings, then water thoroughly and let all excess drain away. These plants cope better with being slightly dry than sitting in wet compost, so never leave the pot standing in water. Reduce watering significantly through the cooler, darker months.

Best Growing Conditions Grow in bright light with some gentle direct sun, ideally at around 15-24°C, away from cold draughts and sudden temperature changes. Use well-drained soil and make sure excess water can drain freely from the pot. A warm, airy position and lower humidity suit this plant better than a steamy or constantly damp room.

Why is this bundle good for students?

All three plants in this bundle store water in their leaves. This gives students some room in the watering routine, and does not cause much damage if they miss watering the plants due to weekends away and busy exam weeks. They need less frequent watering than many other houseplants, particularly during winter. Allow the compost to dry out between waterings and adjust the frequency according to the growing conditions.

Can I leave them over the holidays?

These plants can often manage a couple of weeks without watering, depending on the temperature and growing conditions. Before leaving, check the compost and water only if they have dried out. Keep the plants in suitable light and away from excessive heat, and never leave their pots standing in water.

Are these plants safe for pets?

No. Aloe, Snake Plant and Jade Plant are all poisonous to cats and dogs and can cause sickness and diarrhoea. If you share your home with pets, our Pet Friendly Houseplant Bundle is a safer choice.

Which plant can go in a darker room?

The snake plant tolerates lower light levels better than the aloe vera and jade plant. It can grow in a shadier part of a room that still receives natural daylight, although it should not be kept in complete darkness.

What is the most common mistake with these plants?

Overwatering. Wet compost rots the roots of all three plants in this bundle, especially in a cold room in winter. To avoid these issues, always check if the compost is dry right through before watering, and only then water them. Plus, you can use pots with drainage holes to let the extra water escape.

Top tip

Give it plenty of light and resist watering on a fixed schedule; allowing the compost to dry between waterings is usually the safest approach. Good drainage is especially important, so avoid leaving the roots sitting in persistently wet or compacted soil.
