Looking for a winter foster home for my plants

[sjcap.livejournal.com]

I'm going out of town for around 3 months and need to find a temporary home for about a dozen lovely houseplants. I have 2 hanging pothos, a 3 ft. tall snake plant, and other assorted table-top size ones averaging about a foot high. And all in various styley containers. They'll cheer up your grey winter nest!

Everything is easy to care for. No special instructions. Occasional water, some indirect sunlight, and that's that. In the past, my downstairs neighbor took them on, but they moved out earlier this year. Spread out over a couple of rooms, they should look more like accents, rather than turning your space into a greenhouse.

So, lemme know if you're interested in some delightful instant decor. I can zipcar deliver around Somerville, if need be. Ideally, it would be great if one person could take everything, as that would be a lot easier to keep track of. I'll be going away on the 23rd, so we would need to do things this week. Thanks!

What kind of plants are they? (I might be happy to take them for you for that time period if they are non-toxic, but I have a toddler who tests things for eatability a little too much if they are not.)

i can't say for certain what everything is. besides the aforementioned pothos and snake plant, there is ivy, bamboo, a couple of succulents (that are blooming pink right now), a couple of different things that look like they are in the caladium family, and a mystery basket that i got at home depot. as for their toxicity, or general flavor, i can't say for sure.
