Even though cheat sheets are frowned upon in the classroom and bound to get your kid into serious trouble if he's found with one, they're the ultimate lifesaver at home. In our opinion, you should embrace anything and everything that promises to make your life easier — even if it's related to something as simple as keeping a plant alive.

That's why we're obsessed with this Houseplant Cheat Sheet, which will help you nurture that green thumb you know is hiding deep down inside of you. Instead of heading to your local nursery and picking out a plant for your kitchen arbitrarily, use the guidelines in this sheet to determine which variety is best for the different rooms in your house.

Once you get your new plant baby home, follow the care advice to determine where you should place it based on how much light it needs and how often you should water it. Or, if you're known for killing each and every plant you bring home (even the ones that are near impossible to kill), we recommend you pick out you plant based on which one require the least amount of care. Just a thought.

Take a look for yourself and prepare to watch your plants thrive:
