Are there any plants that are great for low shade parts of a room? I want to put some plants in my room but there isn’t to much light where I want to put them. Any suggestions?!

Yes to snake plants and also the zz plant. I have a prayer plant I put in my west facing window and it loves it. It even started to grow flowers.

Agree with the other comment about snake plants and zz plants. You can also try Pothos — they are called devils ivy for a reason.

I have a south-facing window, but I have a Scarlett-star which is on the other side of the room and it’s doing great, if you want something big with flowers
