# I have a bathroom with no windows and extremely limited (natural)…

_Publicado por Nickoburg el 2025-11-02_

I have a bathroom with no windows and extremely limited (natural) light. It’s humid, generally warm, but gets very little light. I’d love to get some greenery in there, but have no idea what might survive! Any ideas? Thanks!

You will need a grow light running 12 hours a day. Then, you can put tropical plants in there. Plants need lights. Some will survive while growing lanky and possibly drop leaves like pothos. 🪴🍀

You might try a deep shade species like a fern, but you're probably going to need a grow light

I have pothos in my bathroom that are doing pretty well and like the humidity. The light that comes into my bathroom is minimal through a frosted window. The leaves on some of mine have gotten smaller with less light

I have 12 plants in my windowless attic bathroom. I have 2 grow lights and the fan is broken so it gets humid when the shower is on. Most plants are doing really well in here. Now that’s it’s cold I barely water.

This is great, thank you Dani!!

Any time!

My vote is usually for a ZZ plant. I’ve had one at my office that doesn’t have natural light and much less humidity and it does well!

#### Nickoburg respondió el 2025-11-03

Sounds like a perfect choice, thanks Ellen!
