What plants would be fine in a north facing window? About 5-6 hour of full sun.

    A window facing true north is not good for plants that need bright indirect or direct sunlight. Maybe the window is more east or more west facing. Then, 5-6 hours of direct sunlight (east) would be good depending on the plant.

    I have 2 north facing windows, that get about 1-3 hrs direct sun in the AM and 1-3 hrs direct in the PM. And contrary to all information and instinct my plants that THRIVE in those spots are my: Pothos (have about 6 different species) Orchids (very random I know) Creeping Fig Philo - vining varieties (brasil, neon, micans) Some of these I move to spots with grow lights for the winter, but most of them I don’t have to move. I’m in SW Canada if that’s any help.

    My office only has a north facing window for light. I have a small parlor palm and several air plants that are doing awesome on the window sill. My money tree sits on my desk, maybe a foot away and a spider plant on the top of a bookcase several feet away, both are also thriving.

    My 2 north facing windows look like this, but one is a corner so it gets a bit of eastern light. #1: pineapple, spider plant, mystery philodendron but most vining varieties should work

      Window 2, this is the corner. Cacti mixed, including Arizona sunshine, bunny ears, and prickly pear. succulents mixed, including pepperoni pincushion/happy bean tree, snake plant, aloes, kalanchoe, zebra plant, and jade plant. Also receiving mixed light from this window is my water propping shelf.

    I have a syngonium that’s been doing pretty well since I moved it to a north window!
