Not everyone is fortunate enough to live in a house that receives a lot of natural light. Most of us have at least one area in our homes that is badly lighted, frequently giving the space a lifeless appearance. Fortunately, many indoor plants can survive in dimly lit spaces like workplaces and only need minimal upkeep, making them ideal for people with hectic schedules or inexperienced gardeners.
Check out these durable yet fashionable types that don't require full sunlight if you've been hesitant to add low light indoor plants to a space.
Snake Plant
Snake plants, one of the hardiest indoor plants in the group and a kind that is growing in popularity, may be left in low light settings and only sometimes need watering. This colourful sculpture-making plant also possesses toxins-repelling properties. Bear in mind that both cats and dogs cannot consume this plant.
Devil’s Ivy
Low and bright, indirect light is favourable for the growth of devil's ivy. This uncomplicated trailing plant can be planted in pots or water vases indoors and flourishes. When the earth has dried out, water this plant. To promote roots, you can also prune and take cuttings, placing them in glass jars with water. This trailing plant gives a house a fashionable accent.
Peace Lily
One of the most beautiful low light indoor plants, peace lilies are also one of the best air purifiers. They require little maintenance. They need low to medium light and don't mind being submerged, so you could neglect them for a week and still have a wonderful plant to enjoy.
Cast Iron Plant
The appropriately named "cast-iron plant" is a highly hardy species. This plant needs to be watered less frequently; the lower the light, the more its leaves will turn brown if exposed to excessive sunlight. Its evergreen foliage produces a lush and leafy indoor show.
Zanzibar Gem
The Zanzibar Gem is a stunning plant with robust stems and lobed, dark-green leaves with shiny cuticle surfaces. It is one of the greatest minimal-maintenance indoor plants we have. It can endure neglect, a drought, and low light levels while thriving.
Its shiny, waxy leaves reflect sunlight very well. This successfully brightens and lightens the space and the mood of those present. There is also no need to repot it frequently because of its moderate growth. Additionally, a NASA study discovered that it is remarkably effective at removing airborne pollutants like benzene, toluene, and xylene.
Spathiphyllum "Sensation,
This Spathiphyllum species has enormous leaves that are both delicate and striking in appearance. The "Sensation" plant has large, lush leaves that are notably ribbed and glossy dark green in growth. This gives it the full, lush appearance you want for your room.
'Sensation' will also produce huge white spathes in areas with more light, which nicely contrast with the deep, luxuriant foliage.
Peacock Plant
The Peacock Plant is flashy, colourful, and full of life, just like its namesake, with glossy foliage with a lovely, feathery leaf design. It offers interest and variety to a space with multiple plants since it becomes a spectacular feature when clumped together on a table or in a central atrium. It's also incredibly simple to maintain, just like the other plants on this list.
Selecting Indoor Plants
You should consider your interior design style while selecting native plants for your indoor garden. Will a "tropical" appearance that transports you to a lush rainforest perform the best? You might want to think about plants like the Zanzibar Gem. Or do you have a contemporary space with simple, clear lines? If so, you might want to concentrate on plants with more sculptural forms, like the Happy Plant.
Whatever your taste, adding greenery to your area will make it more attractive and exciting while also being excellent for your mental and physical well-being.
