If you&#8217;re in a basement apartment or enclosed in a place in the middle of a big city, your options will be even more limited.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.missouribotanicalgarden.org\/PlantFinder\/PlantFinderDetails.aspx?kempercode=b611\">Philodendron plants<\/a> are a good choice since they actually hate direct sunlight. Pot a philodendron plant in regular soil, keep it in a mild climate, then water it when the soil dries and you should have a massive plant in no time. One word of warning: they will grow really fast. You can trim them to keep it under control, or just set the pot up high somewhere and let it cascade down for infinity.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Sansevieria_trifasciata\">Snake plants<\/a> are another perfect choice for places with low-light. These plants grow straight up and have large, striped leaves. Many people say this plant thrives on neglect; which makes it the ideal houseplant in my book. Plant it and then water it just enough so that the roots don&#8217;t rot. Fun fact: Another name for this plant is Mother-in-law\u2019s Tongue (heh).<\/p>\n<h5><a href=\"http:\/\/www.yourdictionary.com\/philodendron\u00a0\"><b>Photo source<\/b><\/a><\/h5>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" size-medium wp-image-680 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/fourwalls.rentler.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/fern-bamboo-500x338.png\" alt=\"fern-bamboo\" width=\"500\" height=\"338\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rentler.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/fern-bamboo-500x338.png 500w, https:\/\/www.rentler.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/fern-bamboo.png 612w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Some people don&#8217;t mix plants and pets because pets can be jerks who only want to play with potted plants. Some plants are also extremely toxic to pets. You&#8217;ll want to stay far away from aloe vera, lilies, and certain cacti&#8230;but those plants don&#8217;t exactly fare well in low-light anyway. Instead, pick up a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.guide-to-houseplants.com\/lucky-bamboo.html\">bamboo plant<\/a> or <a href=\"http:\/\/www.indoor-gardener.com\/button-fern.html\">button fern<\/a>. Both can grow with moderate care in different lighting conditions and have been classified as <a href=\"http:\/\/www.aspca.org\/pet-care\/animal-poison-control\/toxic-and-non-toxic-plants\">safe by the ASPCA<\/a>. The bamboo plant is a little more sensitive and requires that you don\u2019t plant it with too much soil above the roots and you will have to gently mist it with a spray bottle daily&#8230;but the upside is that it won\u2019t kill your pet!<\/p>\n<p>One thing to watch out for: many people like to keep pothos (a sister plant of the philodendron we recommended earlier) because it thrives in dim lighting. If you have a cat, though, you should probably steer clear of it.<\/p>\n<h5><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ikea.com\/us\/en\/catalog\/products\/10186658\/\">Photo Source<\/a><\/h5>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-681\" src=\"http:\/\/fourwalls.rentler.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/spider-plant-copy-500x350.png\" alt=\"spider plant copy\" width=\"500\" height=\"350\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rentler.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/spider-plant-copy-500x350.png 500w, https:\/\/www.rentler.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/spider-plant-copy-100x70.png 100w, https:\/\/www.rentler.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/spider-plant-copy-601x420.png 601w, https:\/\/www.rentler.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/spider-plant-copy.png 612w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.guide-to-houseplants.com\/janet-craig.html\">Dracaena<\/a> or &#8220;Janet Craig&#8221; is the perfect apartment plant. It purifies the air without requiring much maintenance at all. It looks kind of like a palm tree, with a long thin trunk and a spray of wide leaves at the top, so you&#8217;ll want a large pot for this one. It doesn&#8217;t dig soggy water, so you&#8217;ll have to keep an eye on that when you water it. Then there\u2019s the MVP of houseplants, the <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Chlorophytum_comosum\">spider plant<\/a>. It cleans the air, is non-toxic to animals, and thrives in any lighting condition.<\/p>\n<p>This is a pretty basic guide, but should be enough to get you started.
