1. Aglonema red siam

2. Basil
Cut a stem that is around four or five inches in length. Remove the bottom leaves and place them in water. After 5 days or more, you will start to see roots.
3. Anthurium
This plant is easy to grow in water. Just take one from a cutting and place it into a net pot. The net pot is optional, you can place it directly in water.

4. Pothos devil’s ivy
You can not go wrong with this plant. It grows in any water, you can use tap or rainwater. If you are a beginner, then this plant is for you.
