I am looking for something to plant outside, something very low
maintenence. I have no experience with gardening and don't know where
to go to find the perfect plant. I want something small, tropical, and
easy. Anyone have any ideas?

Reallly depends on your location, but there are some cycads that are
relatively low growing, definitely tropical looking and will stand the
weather in the UK. Local garden centres are a good bet to find out. Go
to a big one and they should have only things in stock that will
survive in your location.

OK:

Size (height - width) ?
Aspect (sun - shade etc) ?
Your favourite flower colour ?

Fatsias can get a bit big -Hebe can be small evergreen and flower year round

How about Agapanthus in a sunny spot, and hardy ferns in the shade.
