I would like some easy to look after house plants to fit in my uni flat. Do you have any suggustions?

Spider plants are easy to grow, can be hung up high once they start growing and are good for combatting pollution e.g. from monitors. Cacti and succulents as pretty indestructible and Mother-in-law's tongue (Sansevieria trifasciata) for looks.

It depends on how much light gets into your room. Cacti and succulents need the sun, while palms and ferns prefer a shady site. Dracaenas (dragon trees), scheffleras (umbrella plants) and parlour palms (chamaedorea) are all pretty tough
