I live in England, Zone 8 in a retirement bungalow and I have found that the best plants for indoors are cactus and succulents. Some professional gardening expert at Amateur Gardening magazine told me that sempervivums are fully hardy so like a fool I put a container with several in it outside, the frost got them and they all died. It was then I decided to keep them indoors until June when the frosts will have finished.
The succulents and cacti that I have all love the sun so I can put them outside for the summer. Always supposing we get any this year - last June the whole area was flooded. I now belong to the British Cactus & Succulent Society.
Here are some of my plants - the window sill is covered with them and so is the large octagonal coffee table.
