Green thumb? Not us. We swear we must emit a lot of carbon monoxide; mosquitos love us but plants? Not so much. But this year, we're tempted to start a succulent garden after seeing this one at a friend's house.
Inspiration: Hanging Succulent Garden
Hanging in an openwork iron basket, so even we couldn't overwater it, and open to the sun, it fulfills the requirements that plants need to live in our home: easy care, drought tolerant, pretty, durable and native. Wrought iron or cast iron hanging baskets can be found at your local nursery; we also found one at Plow & Hearth and at Smith & Hawken

Give it a try. I absolutely have a black thumb for houseplants. For years I've tried and they've died. Except for succulents, cacti and geraniums (the pelargonium kind). I decided this year to liberate myself from houseplants and now I buy flowers to bring plant life into the house. But I kept the three aforementioned types of plants and they are doing splendidly with virtually no care.
