What indoor plants thrive on over-watering?

I would like to get "the Plant Killer" indoor plants she can over-water without them dying. Or better yet, indoor plants that require lots of water. Ones that flower too would be pretty nice.

You can get her a vase with an ivy plant in it. Ivy can live in just water with no dirt. So, you can look right at it and tell if the water's low or not. And it's also one of the toughest and fastest-growing plants around.
