Indoor plants have become increasingly widespread over the years. They are now a common item for embellishing any room, including the bathrooms.
A touch of greenery in the bathrooms can beautify and improve the air quality. They bring an eye-catching appeal to your bathroom and add a splash of splendour. The same applies to bathrooms without windows.
Although decorating a windowless bathroom with a plant is tricky, it is possible. Some plants thrive better in such places than others. This category of plants loves humid, dark, and moist environments.
In this article, you’ll find a long list of plants that can enliven your windowless bathroom. You’ll also learn the best ways to care for bathroom plants.
Which Plants Can Survive in a Windowless Bathroom?
A windowless bathroom has no natural light coming into them. They are characterized with high temperature and humidity levels.
The following plants can thrive in the windowless bathroom.
If your bathroom lacks a window or receives very little natural light, you’ll need to choose plants that can thrive in low-light conditions. Here are some options along with details about each one:
1. Snake Plant (Sansevieria trifasciata): Also known as mother-in-law’s tongue, this hardy plant can tolerate low light and is very low maintenance, requiring infrequent watering. It’s known for its tall, upright leaves that come in various shades of green and yellow.
2. ZZ Plant (Zamioculcas zamiifolia): With its glossy, dark green leaves, the ZZ plant is a popular choice for low-light environments. It’s drought-tolerant and can go long periods without water, making it ideal for bathrooms.
3. Cast Iron Plant (Aspidistra elatior): True to its name, this plant is incredibly tough and can survive in low light and neglect. It has dark green, strappy leaves and requires infrequent watering.
4. Peace Lily (Spathiphyllum spp.): While peace lilies prefer bright, indirect light, they can tolerate low-light conditions, especially if supplemented with artificial light. They produce elegant white flowers and glossy green leaves, and they’re excellent air purifiers.
5. Chinese Evergreen (Aglaonema spp.): These colorful foliage plants are well-suited to low-light environments and are incredibly adaptable. They come in various shades of green, silver, and red, adding visual interest to your bathroom.
6. Dracaena (Dracaena spp.): Many varieties of dracaena, such as Dracaena marginata or Dracaena fragrans, can tolerate low light. They have striking, architectural foliage and are relatively low maintenance.
7. Philodendron (Philodendron spp.): Philodendrons are versatile plants that can adapt to low-light conditions. They come in various shapes and sizes, from trailing vines to compact bushes, and they’re known for their heart-shaped leaves.
8. Spider Plant (Chlorophytum comosum): While spider plants prefer bright, indirect light, they can tolerate low light as well. They have arching leaves and produce small white flowers, making them a popular choice for bathrooms.
These plants can thrive in bathrooms with limited or no natural light, but it’s essential to supplement their lighting with artificial sources if possible. Additionally, ensure that you provide proper care in terms of watering and occasional fertilization to keep your plants healthy.
