Light fixtures for dark rooms

Houseplants for Dark Rooms and Shady Places

 

Not every room in our home or office is flooded with bright sunlight. Darker hallways, windowless bathrooms, north-facing windowsills, or simply a corner of a room farther from the window – it seems that such places are not suitable for plants. But that is not true! There are many beautiful and hardy houseplants that tolerate shade and can thrive even in low light conditions.

Augi-plants.lv has created a special shade-loving houseplant collection so you can bring greenery into any room of your home or office, regardless of the amount of light.

 

What Are "Houseplants for Dark Rooms"?

 

It is important to understand that no plant can live in complete darkness – photosynthesis requires light. However, plants for low light have adapted to survive with much less light than their sun-loving relatives. They often come from the lower layers of tropical forests, where only a small portion of sunlight reaches them.

These plants are ideal for rooms that receive only indirect light or are located farther from the window.

 

The Hardiest Plants for Low Light

 

In our collection, you will find proven favorites that won’t let you down:

  • Zamioculcas (Zamioculcas zamiifolia): Often called the "eternity plant" or "money tree," it is almost indestructible. It tolerates irregular watering and very low light excellently.

  • Snake Plant (Sansevieria): Known for its hardy, vertical leaves and air-purifying properties. Snake plants are extremely adaptable and will tolerate both shade and forgetful owners.

  • Scindapsus (Epipremnum) and Philodendrons: Many of these popular vining species grow well even deep inside a room, making a great addition to shelves or the tops of cabinets.

  • Peace Lily (Spathiphyllum): Also known as the "peace lily," it is one of the few that can bloom (with white spathes) even in insufficient light.

Don’t be afraid to green even the darkest corners! Choose one of our hardy houseplants for dark rooms and see that greenery can thrive in any conditions.
