Aspidistra is a great choice, Judy. Iron plant. I think it can live in a closet without water nearly forever. And it always looks good. Hard to beat syngonium, too, Melody, especially the variegated ones; a cutting will live forever without complaint in a jar of water. Somewhere I've got a picture of a striking one--if I can find it, I'll post it on Facebook.
Oh yeah. Mother-in-law's tongue is sansavaria. It come either green/ yellow or mostly green/white flecks. The blooms, which it does once in a long while, have a wonderful aroma, sweet but not jasminey, which is nice.

How about Aspidistra? or a Hoya?
My winter heathers are in bloom and 1 patch of Candytuft is blooming. Narcissus are up about 6 inches in the warmest corners, no buds. Woke up to snow falling this am. At 40F it melted by 10am. It's 37F out there now ~ 4:30pm.

Mother-in-laws tongue...or whatever the real name is. They can handle

We are on a warming trend here in Iowa...40's today and tomorrow, maybe 50's by midweek. As long as it is a slow warm up for the snowmelt not to become a problem, I will be happy...tons of the white stuff that is now very dirty grey and ugly. Have bought myself a couple of easy houseplants 
for my office now that I've moved to one with a south facing window.
Nothing fancy (bloomed out amaryllis, a variegated pothos, and a syngonium (arrowhead plant)...but they are green and they bring a nice color into what is otherwise a very grey cubicle area! Any suggestions for easy to care for houseplants that would do well with medium sunlight on a window 
sill?
