Here's an update with pictures of some of my indoor plants. I have given away about 80% of what I had since I had multiples of so many of my plants and some of them were simply overgrown. For example, my rubber tree tore up it's pot, and needed a home with more space. I just posted free houseplants on craigslist, and within a couple days, had dozens of replies last fall. They are decent plants, I just don't have unlimited window space for them all. I take my houseplants outdoors in mid-may, and usually bring them back in by around November.
Here are my dcxl venus fly traps. I usually give away a few of these each year, and keep the biggest ones so I can keep them all in the same pot.
I separate them whenever I see that they have split into 2 plants, and likely have their own root systems.
When my 2 dwarf lime trees grow into directions that I don't want, I will trim those branches off, stick them in rooting hormone, and they almost always root. Had to give away a dozen rooted cuttings. These guys are surprisingly easy to propagate. The bigger one should be big enough to fruit by next summer.
I got this poinsettia last year as a tiny plant, and it grew well in the summer, but kind of declined with colder temperatures. Indoors it has recovered nicely and has the red leaves on top again.
The aloes are usually planted into the ground once it warms up in the spring, and I will dig them up in the fall when they are massive with tons of babies. I will take a couple of the smaller plants, giving away the rest because they multiply pretty easily. They grow like crazy when they are planted in the ground.
I kepted one of my alocasia cucculatas.
The plumerias, and amaryllis bulbs don't need soil to get through the winter.
I have sold off about 3 dozen of my amorphophallus titanum plants, and donated a few remainders to the local college which apparently doesn't have it, keeping a small one which I can keep growing out. This was a pretty fun experiment, and this plant is not all that tough to grow as long as you know it's requirements. This one should put out another petiole in another month up to 2.5ft in height, not too tall for the windowsill. I need to figure something out once it gets too big for the house.
Here's my orchid which has survived for 1.5 years already. It almost died last winter when it was too close to the cold draft from the window, but has recovered nicely, and is now putting out a new flower stalk. I've found that this type of plant needs super good aeration in it's soil, and high light with preferably high humidity to grow well.
The epiphyllum pot was getting way too overcrowded when it had about a dozen plants so I had to give away more than half of it so they would have growing room for the remaining ones.
Here's the pachira aquatica money tree. This is one of the easiest houseplants you can get. All it needs is a decent amount of light, and it will likely grow well. It produces some massive leaves in the winter as they expand to catch more light.
