Six Indoor plants for low light

Houseplants benefit us in many ways. They brighten our homes and offices, help change our moods and even clean the air. A common question we get is "will this plant do okay if I don't have a lot of light?" Just because you don't have a bright, well-lit room in your home or office, doesn’t mean you can't grow healthy houseplants. Here are six houseplants that are easy to grow and will do well in areas where they don't receive a lot of light. 

 If you like blooming houseplants then the Peace Lily or Spathiphyllum is the choice for you. This exceptional plant will bloom with lovely white flowers, in low light. 


The distinct foliage of Chinese Evergreens make them a standout display in your room or office. Water, then let the soil dry out slightly before you water again. 


 Sansevieria or Snake Plant is an easy to grow succulent; very tough and durable and very tolerant of low light.  Avoid over-watering and let the soil dry out a little before you water again.  


Pothos plants are fast growing and low-maintenance. A great choice if you're just getting started with houseplants.  Allow the top two inches of the soil to dry out before watering again..These plants can be grown in a hanging basket or in a pot on the table or desk.   

Peperomia plants can handle low to high light. Let the soil dry out slightly between watering. Growing Peperomia supposedly brings you luck with money.  


Dracaenas are easy plants to grow in low light, if you don't over water them. Let the soil dry out about half way down between watering. 

If you're uncertain about when to water your plants, invest in a simple water meter. It will help take the guess work out of watering.  In addition, plan to feed your low light houseplants about every two weeks with houseplant fertilizer. Matching the right plant to your home and office conditions will help your houseplants thrive for many years.
