Do you need houseplants who don't mind the lack of sun, so they can handle both the shade and the shade? Whether you have windows to the north or they are so far away and small, so you can only dream of a sunny living room or bedroom with a flood of plants, everything can be solved. The right selection of unpretentious room flowers is nothing complicated.
Not everyone can choose exactly according to their wishes to choose the layout of the apartment or house. Or so, but then there's a new multi-story house or a tall fence next door. What if you want to make something green cozy a corner a few feet from the window? For many plants just lack of light a big problem. They suffer, they have pulled and weak shoots, they do not bloom.
This, of course, does not mean that you should give up plants. You just choose the one that thrives even in the shade and shade. The advantage is that most of them are quite unpretentious, so they can be successfully grown by both a beginner and a forgetful person who has problems with regular watering. There are plenty to choose from, but in advance you have to accept that they will be beautifully green, but they will not bloom. And if you put a plant with beautifully pansy leaves in the shade, they turn green.
