Plants also act as natural air purifiers that cleanse the air from toxic chemicals, making the air more cleaner and breathable.ย
But, unfortunately everyone isn't clued up about the benefits of having houseplants. Also, those living in low-light apartments assume that all plants need proper sunlight to survive which isn't always the case.ย There are indoor plants that don't need a lot of sunlight to survive.

And, that's exactly what Twitter user, Angieย tries to tell us, through this thread.
plants give so much life and healthy air quality to your bedroom and if youโve been discouraged from getting plants because your room doesnโt get plenty of sunlight, here are some plants that will grow in a window-less room

All the plants that Angie has mentioned above can thrive in window-less rooms however, they'll need some amount of artificial light (lamp light, ceiling light) to live.ย
all of these plants will thrive in your window-less bedroom but will require some artificial light (lamps or ceiling lights) to remain ON for most of the day... they should not be left in a super dark room for way too long or theyโll get lonely and die (except for bedtime ofc)โจ

A lot of people agreed with Angie on the importance of having indoor plants. While some posted images of their 'green' friends others, liked how informative this thread was.ย
