Plant for a bathroom with no outside light


Question
What would be a good plant to put in my bathroom which has no outside light?  It is totally dark when the lights are off.

Answer
Hi Ted,

All plants need at least 8 hours per day of light. That light could be from a fluorescent or grow light (ordinary incandescent light is not adequate).  If you cannot meet that minimum, then an artificial plant is your only option.

The best low light plants are Pothos, Aglaonema, parlor palm, and ZZ plant.


Please let me know if any of this is unclear or if you have any additional questions.

If this information has been helpful, please take the time to give me a rating and nomination.
