I don't have much of a green thumb nor the time for upkeep with plants. I'd like to have a few around the house for decor and because I simply like plants.
What are the best houseplants you can maintain? Something that requires sunlight or minimal sunlight and can be watered weekly? Something preferably green leafed that is not poisonous to animals would be my idea plant. Also, I'd like to have a plant I can root from it's leaves (where you take a leaf and stem and place into water so you can root it).

Aloe Vera is an easy plant to grow. It is non poisonous, multiplies quickly when re-potted to large pots, and can be used medicinally. It does well in eastern or southern window light and can be placed outside for the summer (non tropical climates). Does well with neglect, just make sure there is some moisture in the soil, but does not like overwatering. Aloe does well with self water pots. If you lived close I would give you some of mine, I have plenty !!

My favorite indoor plant is the Weeping Fig. It has beautiful shiny green leaves and it's very easy to care for. You can find them at just about any garden center. Heck, even Walmart sells them.

philodendron is the easiest plant to grow in doors. it is a vine and you can break off at joints to root new ones. only needs water once a week and minimal amount of sun. as they grow you and train them to grow any where

Spider plant, croton, mother-in-laws tongue (snake plant), chinese evergreen, cast iron plant and pothos are all low maintenance and easy plants to grow.
You can propagate spider plants and pothos in water.
Good luck!

Try cactus. It isn't leafy, but is durable.
