Aspidistra is sometimes called the Cast Iron Plant because it's very hard to kill – perfect for people starting their houseplant collection!
 
In the wild, they're found in shaded areas under larger trees in China and Vietnam, which means they can live in 'poorer' growing conditions. 
 
Watering
 
Aspidistra will be fine with irregular watering. Make sure the soil dries out completely before watering. 
 
Light
 
Your Aspidistra can live in basically any spot in your home, but avoid putting it somewhere with direct sunlight. 
 
Humidity
 
Mist your Aspidistra every few days to avoid brown spots forming on its leaves.
