Very easy low light houseplants to grow. They are very forgiving and get huge when well taken care of.

Rhipsalis

Rhipsalis are one of my favorite plants to grow. They are gorgeous, easy to propagate and so very forgiving if neglected.

Known as “fussy” in the plant community this plant does well in lower light. If you keep them humid with moist soil they can thrive.

Schefflera do very well in lower light. They are so easy to care for an honestly I forget about mine all the time and it thrives.

It’s no secret that houseplants make a home feel more like home. Despite your lighting situation you can and should have plants in your home.
