An apartment with plants always gives a more pleasant impression. Green corners allow you to relax after a hard day. Below is a list of house flowers that don’t particularly like brightly lit places
House flowers don’t like shade or darker places at all, but some have adapted to harsher conditions through evolutionary changes. They have specially shaped leaves that accept the lack of sunlight
You will certainly notice that such plants bloom less often and are rather green with impressive veins on their leaves. This type of flower uses the small amount of sunlight for photosynthesis and simply does not have the strength to produce buds. If you choose shade-loving plants, be sure not to expose them to direct sunlight. This will cause them to wilt
This is one of the most popular representatives of the group of flowers that like dark places. Naturally found in Africa, where they grow in the shade of tall trees, and this has allowed them to adapt to growing in darker spaces. The flowers do best in partial shade, but they also do well in dark rooms
They don’t like sunlight and they wilt very quickly. These plants are ideal for beginner gardeners, because they are not afraid of infrequent watering. When growing, this plant produces clumps of pinnate, dark green leaves, which are arranged on thick petioles. It is recommended to grow it in an open space, without squeeze and other plants next to it.
This is an extremely popular plant in recent years. No wonder, it looks beautiful and does not require specialized care. Monstera can reach a height of up to 2.5 meters, and the width of the leaves is often 70 cm. In the wild the plant grows as a climber, but it does well in a pot. It requires a shady spot about 3 meters from a window and needs to be watered once a week
If holes appear on the leaves of the monstera, it means that they have been in the sun too long. On the other hand, if they do not want to grow or reach a very small size, this is the plant’s way of demanding more sun. Remember to wipe its leaves of dust regularly (at least once a month).

It is especially recommended for people who are forgetful and those who like to have lush greenery at home, but don’t particularly like tending it. The fleshy leaves accumulate water, so the plant should be watered only when the ground dries out. It is a flower that can be grown in rooms with high humidity, such as a bathroom
