Pam and I visit people and see their dead plants in the pots.
We refer to them "Did you check out the lovely dried arrangements" Hehe

When I used to kill houseplants on a regular basis, I would chop them into little bits, put the bits in a bowl and tell people it was exotic potpourri.

Fooled no one.

I didn't realize you were to give them a proper burial.

Bromeliads, man, bromeliads. I have a black thumb too.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

I'm not affected by poison ivy, I've discovered.

Spider plant.  People who know more about this sort of thing than I do swear that these are virtually idiot-proof.  Very forgiving if you neglect them for a bit, they do well in pots or on hangers, and aren't picky about sunlight.

Good luck.

You wanted the name of a plant.
