New planted tank

I would like to be able to have a few plants in my tank, but I want minimum maintenance and care. I've heard a few things about java plants being good, but a trip to my LPS did not carry any. They did have a lot of other plants though, I just can not remember their names.
Could anyone name all the plants they can think of that are easy and don't require difficult fertilization, lighting, grooming or care requirements.

EDIT: Also I only have 1/4 inch substrate if that makes any difference.

Watersprite(both types), hornwart, just about any moss, and maybe micro sword if you have enough light.

Other than java moss and java fern, I've had the best luck with watersprite.
