I’m looking for an easy-to-care-for plant for an office that doesn’t need a whole lot of natural light to thrive. Anyone have any good suggestions?

I have a bamboo in a pretty pot. They are hard to kill.

A pothos plant is virtually indestructible and will adapt to any environment.

I am the proud custodian of deceased office plants of several species, including famously resilient succulents.
:( The pothos plant is literally the only type of plant I have ever had and not killed. I can also attest to their indestructability via at least one more data point- my father, also a notorious plant killer, has managed to keep two of these alive over 14 years, several moves, inappropriate light and watering, and numerous incidents with wayward teenagers and wagging dog tails.
