Or buy a Epipremnum aureum -- the houseplant that will laugh at your attempts to kill it.

The plant has a number of common names including golden pothos, Ceylon creeper,hunter's robe, ivy arum, silver vine, Solomon Islands ivy, and taro vine. It is also called devil's vine or devil's ivy because it is almost impossible to kill and it stays green even when kept in the dark.

The only thing keeping me from getting one is its toxicity to cats 😥

It’s a bit confusing to have a plant that’s toxic to cats also be called Silver vine. Since this plant is often bought for cats

And is also called silver vine sometimes
