Shade-loving Houseplants

For those of us who live in areas that don’t have the best natural light, it can sometimes be an envious chore to listen to our friends’ gush over their indoor oasis’ full of lush greens and yellow hues. And understandably you can only be told to ‘buy a cactus and quit complaining’ so many times before you snap and suggest what they can do with a cactus! Instead, venture into the world of low-light plants and see what takes your fancy.

And luckily for urban dwellers who live in low light areas there are tons of options available to you, with a huge range of plants happy to sit in the shade and soak up the dim light. From office spaces with no windows, to bathrooms with its daylight constantly blocked by an outdoors brick wall, these shade-loving friends don’t need the rays to have a good time.
